Portugal

Boa tarde! Just arrived yesterday in Portugal after a bit of a hectic drive through snowy  France. Called in with Vincent on the way to check progress of new  KS boards.
Got some waves at Santa Cruz this morning and will get in for second surf later 2.4 metres and 13 sec period. Looks like it will be bigger in a day or two. 
In a week or so Disco Cisco will be hosting a coaching event 'Waveski Time'. Really looking forward to catching up with everyone, getting some coaching and experiencing  diffrent coaching styles too.
Carry on!!

Ocean Addicts Coaching & Development week

Here is some footage from the recent Ocean Addicts waveski & surf kayak coaching camp. Really good group of people on the course so made it a very enjoyable week. The footage is from sessions where students were working on various skills such as getting air, cut backs and re-entries. Plenty of spills so we know they were trying! Thank you again to everyone involved for making it a great week. Look out for the upcoming feature on kayaksurf.net from their roving reporter Pete Copp who has some quality pictures too!
