Kristoffer Living in Pozo

Team rider Kristoffer Living is in Pozo training for the upcoming season.

"We had some ok days with 4.5 conditions. It was really great just to get some time on the water as I've been at home all winter. The funny thing about being "away from the water" for a while is, that every time you get back, you realize how much fun windsurfing still is after all these years!"

Unifiber launches SDM C100 racing masts

Noticing the demand on reliable racing masts encouraged Unifiber to develop a serie of racing masts for a wide variety of sail brands. Most sail brands claim to develop exclusive racing masts for their most prestige sails. Looking to what is available on the market today it seems that the differences among most important sails brands are not as big as they tend to say it is. We have done various tests with several important sailbrands and we came till the conclusion that our masts are really working well, partically with 2 of the well established sail brands. Our carefully selected bend curve (flex distribution bottom 63.4% / top 76.8%) ensured a very nice twist distribution.

Ceballos & Porcella 2nd in Fuerte

Jonas Ceballos E-40 (Simmer/Fantic) and Francisco Porcella I-69( Simmer/Mistral) teamed with local talent Will Ward (Withcraft/Ezzy) and finished 2nd in the Fuerteventura Wave Classic after 9 days of competition on the north shore of Fuerteventura.

The
FWC is a different format of competition where 5 teams of 3 riders team
up and battle their way through the elimination ladder in 30 minute
heats with 5 riders on the water, judged by non other than the riders themselves. Now that´s windsurfing democracy if you ask us!

 
We caught up with Jonas after the contest:

It´s been a really good competition and for sure also very good
training. We scored the biggest swell of the year, it was so massive and
Cotillo
is a very dangerous spot. To get
out you have to jump from the rocks and it is a small bay with really
heavy waves braking in the middle of the channel. When I got on the
water it was even more dangerous than I first thought...   I mean the
waves where great
but Cotillo is not a very easy spot to sail and its very easy to hurt
yourself.  Anyway it was a great experience and contest itself was
great with no
injuries we could make it through two rounds with really good
conditions my team finished 2nd. WELL DONE PORCELLA AND WILL!!! But the
best of all was that we had a lot of fun, I just hope next year will be
even
better! So thanks to all the organisers and riders and I´ll
to see you all next year!!
