windsurfing flow -last May session morocco 2017-


The ocean in front of Sidi Kaouki was wild, wilder, the wildest, wind around 50 kts...and I did know, I will hardly fight to survive and be aware to not make any mistake with my 3.9 sail, which was the smallest in my range these days.
But...it supposed to be my last day there in Morocco...and it was windy and the waves very sweet! 
I already moved my departure about 4 days...because wind didn´t stop. 
Incredible may times! 
At least I wanted to say good bye and give it a try :-)

 


 Ok, it was working more or less...but everywhere, if outside at the raff sea or between the waves, out of control...I didn´t like so much.


 

But finally some present came from heaven..."Patrick" one austrian guy, making holidays there to windsurf and he needs a break and ask me, if I wanna try his rental sail... :-) :-) :-) 
Did I hear right?? YES  
Chances coming somehow, best: if you do not expect...again, I am lucky girl!
 

 3.3 was working so much more comfortable...I was go crazy...my last session...with perfect gear!!
Felt like christmas, birthday, mariage...just real good moments! 











that was too much twisted

Great feeling to check the waves and not only fighting with a too big sail, to keep my position without blowing away ;-)




I guess he or she was a bit afraid...;-)


 Thanks to Hicham and his wonderful new idea & Start Up of  Berber Surfaris -Morocco-
to capture this moments in pictures :-)

Spring Surf -Morocco-


February till May I belong to the waves of Imsouane, one of the best waves to improve the surf.
In my opinion!
So, some circumstances made me stay there and I made it my homebase.
Incredible experience for me to get to know a wave so well...in the end it doesn´t matter which size.
If you know your wave...it means relaxed surfing and improving every day :-)

Imesouane harbour
 
 Sometimes, I was struggeling to go out with my Malibu if there was a potential swell...
but using the shortboard and leaving the water happy is also an oportunity. 
No reasons to worry! 


  Once a wave in Imesouane...and you are in a fiever of riding!!!
Time to repeat turns and always a possibility to catch a wave made me learn so much during these 3 month...love it! 
Bottom, Top, Bottom Top...non stop...

 
 

Moments, I knew I am in the wrong place or on the wrong board...April, slowly time for Windsurfing started.

face to face ;-)

surprises waiting everywhere for you!
 
 


 
 


I also enjoyed the Reef break or Cathedral point on the western bay.
But this gives most fun with a short lady...

 
 

 Without additional training many sessions ending out in a desaster...
Regularly workouts and Yoga sessions start belonging to my day as well as the surf! 
If there is no surf - workout. 
Because of a problem with my hip joint, I am not alowed to run anymore. 
But for everything is a solution...aerobics and other cardio variations giving the same result.


 The very new Imsouane Ocean Surfhouse was a perfect place to practice my yoga during the colder month.

 

 
enjoying every day

Another sequence of a very nice surf day.




 
 

 
 


 
 


 






 I love to SURF, there is no way back!
And like always, if I have to leave the big ocean, I am gonna miss it. 
But sometimes, life is more than waves...
It was a pleasure to spend my time again at a wonderful place with some wonderful waves & amazing people.

And it was hard to leave, because waves didn´t stop & people staying...but visa, family, the pressure to earn money & wind forced me to move ;-)

Till next time Morocco and Imsouane!
Thx to the guys from:
Imsouane Ocean Surfhouse
