RELAX DAY IN C.V

no wind and waves for today so we can relax a bit and charge batteries for tomorrow.

we are expecting a good swell for tomorrow but for the moment just chill in the pool and relax..

second day in c.v 2009

second day of contest and the waves didn,t stop coming in little smaller but perfect.

today the wind was little little than day one but more offshore that means that the waves ones

you drop into them they were really glassy,heats were 40 minutes long cos of the light wind and the waves were taking too much time to come.

I managed to pass my heat after having a lot of trouble in the beginning when I took my second wave and went to the rocks,after I lost a big set.

with only 10 min left I had  the 2 waves that I need it to pass the heat,in this two waves I had couple of good turn an one handed aerial and in the second waves good turns and 3 aerial in the wave.

tomorrow will be less swell but for tuesday we expecting really good swell.

first day of contest,first day of show.

incredible conditions with a lots of first class rides and aerials in punta preta.

my first heat was 4 men wich 2 best pass to the next one but it was gonna be a tough one cos 

in that heat was nothing more like kevin pritchard,levi,ricardo and me.

had a good heat,got 4 waves and 2 really good ones with big aerials and turns but it was so close with me and kevin that they give it to kevin for half points getting 3 in the that heat.damn!!!!!!

let,s see what happens tomorrow.

looks that the swell is no gonna stop.

cape verde tales

Increidible but true!!

just in my way to cv,we arrived in praia to fly to sal for the first contest of the year and when I was passing the customs for my visa the found that my passport was expired just a week ago that I didnt even know and the lock me up with some other in a celd with no beds,food or water for 24 hours without knowing anything of outside world,I had one of my worst times in m y life.didn,t when they were gonna open that door or when I was getting out or if they were gonna let me go and the other thing is that they were gonna send me back to spain take my opportunity to do the first event of the year.

after more than 24 hours that door opened and the told me that the spanish embassy contact then and they were gonna take care of me and find special pass to continue to fly to sal,thanksssss!!so happy to be out of that celd,the treatment of the police there was like they treating with animals..

but finally my nightmare was gone and I took the next flight to sal with jonas and bart..
