Cape Town
This winter I decided to come back to Cape Town to get some training done, it's been 2 yearssince I last came and everything is quite different, for my surprise so I am, the last winters I spent here I always had a hard time with the wind, never managed to learn anything new and ended up being frustrated, but this year has been different, I'm much more comfortable with the crazy Cape Town winds and my training is going much better. It's been really fun in general to be here, there's a bunch of riders around, good old days friends, and girls to ride with! Not any girls too, they are Jalou Langaree and Jo Wilson, rippers that unfortunately don't come to the competitions anymore but are still on the top of their game.
The other day we had a good session in Lagabeen with Aaron Hadlow and Rui Meira, the spot was nice and flat for a change and I managed to ride with my 7m before the wind got to strong and sand was blowing everywhere. Rob and Fiona Claisse from Progression were filming loads and taking shots, here are some of them.
Today is one of my rest days, it's been windy pretty much everyday and the days there was no wind I ended up either going to the cable park, surfing or running chores, so today will be a full day of doing absolutely nothing :)
For now the forecast doesn't look too good for the next days so hopefully the swell will pick up and there will be some epic South African surf to entertain us.
