I watch the forecast for Sidi Kaouki, Morocco and I am a lucky one again :-) it´s supposed to be windy & wavy too!
Tomorrow I go to have a Rendevous again with moroccos coastline. To live and see more windsurfing and surfing and...to teach and coach my first "girls closer to ocean" chicas at morocco...
So, if you like to join our watergirls community, come to morocco...till the 23. septembre and take some lessons with me or just be with us, having a great time in the water...
and for sure, to enjoy the wonderful lifestyle of morocco, a little break from europe.
Honestly, after 7 month over there, I feelt too much stressed here in our world!
People: take it easy and slow down!!!
My last windsurf session is now more than two weeks ago..and I so much look forward to have my next one. Therefore the last one was amazing!
This summer at Fuerte the windcondition have been rare. But these day was a real present for summer times. Very special winddirection, which made it possible to meet some groundswell hitting the westcoast...which is rare in summer as well...and I always wanted to sail these spot, since I have seen it! I was lucky not to discover beetween a winterswell.
Perfect wave...stoked for the rest of the day! was a morning session ;-)
Wind was low, so I hesitated because of my to small, for these condition, 62 l board and my porous biggest sail...and the peak is a little far outside...
But if you are a lucky girl, some of you windsurfmates is coming and proposes you to use his board :-)...so I had my board with enough volume to reach the peak.
only perfect!
After that the wind droped immediatly into zero...so my worst fear about this spot became reality. No wind!
I don´t want to be take out or into an other peak by current. And don´t like so much swimming around at this corner...
Well, not that strong current, so manageable. After paddeling more than 30 mins I arrived the f...riff, cut my heel deep enough to be out of the water for now nearly two weeks. Doing no sports, not being able to walk in the right way and feeling pain all over my legs, because of the wrong way of walking, I hope I will be fine tomorrow! Some surfing was possible, but only two times. It is really time to be back in the Ocean!
This time I show you some impression about a boardshaping variant here on Island.
The shaper: my boardsponsor that day and swimming partner of this day too! :-)
Sorry Dude! I guess without me, he hadn´t had to swimm.
I wanted to try a new board of them, but until now not possible, hopefully when I am back in october.
unmistakeably it still is a men´s world...for me interesting: the upper lady |
blank for a professional windsurfer from belgium... |
was nice just to sidle around and follow the process of forming a new board...
but first I prefer to grab an old shape, which is more than enough for my skills!
You know, I am a friend of recycling ;-)
after programming...machine does the work |
completion |
At Sidi Kaouki, we have a range of this boards too, specially shaped for and they work perfect with the spot right in front of the station...
always keep on following your dreams! |
tomorrow finally travelling again...
a bit more excited this times, because not going with my mobile home...
