A few words about yourself. | check the forecast every day, 2 or 3 times (my girlfriend can’t believe it) on different website and with a long view in the top a mountain !!! (in NC you don’t see the waves from the shore so you have to know before you go). Surf as much as I can and windsurf…after that, yoga and swim to put my back allright and fell good !! I am also a sport teacher for leaving! |
What makes your ride? | Easy….the waves!! The feeling of a board turning under your body. The reef in New Caledonia…so beautiful. |
How much do you love to windsurf? | I love to windsurf in light wind and nice shaped waves, that’s all! Sometimes jumping is ok but surfing a wave with a sail or without a sail is the best. |
What is your most memorable session? | For sure one of Ténia big Day in 2008. |
What inspires you? | Feel good in my body to be better in the water. The big Ocean. A good life with project with my girlfriend. |
Describe your gear and the conditions you use it in. | I use from 4.2 to 4.7 sails .I use the new 3 batten Goya sail in reef condition(side to side-off wind and powerfull waves) and in Magenta (full on shore wave spot good for jumping and tricks in the wave). |
What does riding for Goya mean to you? | Francisco Goya was my first inspiration when I start competing.His world title made me dream because he is humble and rides a wave like few people in the world. He is, one of those guy who created a style. Goya Sail comes from pure passion of waveriding, that’s why it is good! |
