Here is a little movie about a windsurfing trip made in the Canaries by two French riders, Colin & Pedro from La BAR Team (la-bar.fr).
While most people are used to fly to the canaries, we decided to go by van, driving from France to the south of Spain and then taking a ship to Tenerife. After a few days on the spot of the world cup “El Cabezo”, we decided to take another ship to go to fuerteventura.
There we windsurfed on a few different freestyle and wave spots: Sotavento Center 1 and 2, El Cotillo, Playa Blanca… It was really cool to have the chance to go from a spot to another whenever we decided and it’s definitely worth trying the Canaries by van!

What a day all the competitors had at Ho’okipa for Day 4 of the Maui Makani classic! The swell had dropped off but was still substantial enough to provide some logo to mast high sets. The wind pushed through by mid afternoon and most men had rigged 4.7 – 5.0 with the women chosing 3.7- 4.2. It was an emotional day for former world champ and Maui local Kevin Pritchard as he hammered through heat by heat and finally grabbed the title at Ho’okipa for the single elimination.
Enjoy the awesome video of highlights from the Pro single elimination.
