PWA Costa Brava '08 Josh Angulo report
19th June 2008
Costa Brava, Was awesome. First slalom event with wind and one of the days had a great Tramontana. Although I personally was disappointed with my results, I really gained lots of experience and feel much more prepared for the upcoming events in Canaries. On the TR-4 , I would constantly pass guys on the straight away and didn't qualify only when I made mistakes with the starts and had bad starts making it hard to catch up.
The event had over 70 male competitors and approx 20 women, making it the biggest fleet in recent years. It was great to hang out with Sailors from all over the World.

I had an especially good time with Dirk Doppenberg, from our Dutch/International team as we had a great team chemistry, giving clinics and rigging information to some of the campers in the area. It's always great to be able to share our experience with others and the guys in Holland have been doing so much testing they really have so much to offer. I also learned a lot from Dirk.

Marta, our female Polish rider was kicking some butt on the race course and adding some sunshine on the beach. Young Gabriel from Brazil had some nerve problems, and was overcome by the intimidation of competing with all the big names. At only 17 years old however, he is a great listener and after a few good pep talks I am confident that we will see much progress from him in the next events.
Our Thanks go to the kind people of Ballena Alegre and I give it my personal recommendation for anybody looking for some relaxation and family windsurf fun. Check out event photo gallery.
Until Pozo.......
