LAST RACE!

Hi everyone! 

How are you ? Today I had my 3rd Stop of the Mediterranean circuit in Valencia.  I had to get up early at 6am because I had to be in Valencia at 8am so I was really tired at the begging.

The day was really hot and the conditions looks to be flat water so it wasn’t the best conditions for the ripe of board i bring with me but I was focused and existing to race again after a long study week.

The race started and I was on 1st position during all the first lap feeling good with a good race pace , unfortunately one of my rivals made a dangerous move on the pivot turn and I almost fall down so I get back to the 3rd position. 

Finally I get a 2nd Place fighting in the sprint final , so I’m really happy about my performance.

Can’t wait to be back on the water on next Sunday in Castellon.

Aloha !!

SUP RACE. Tips for the UPWIND

Imagen
Hello everyone, today I sill l like to introduce you to the Sup race world. What’s the Upwind? Upwind is when you are paddling against the wind and it’s the hardest way to paddle. Now I would like to give you some tips about how to paddle Upwind and continue going faster.. 1st TIP: Paddle  with good rhythm... The longer the paddle is out of the water, the less we will advance, so we have to try to keep the pace. Better to give shorter paddles but with a higher rhythm. If we make slow movements the wind will slow down the advance. So the first advice is short, fast and constant paddling. 2nd TIP: Go facing the wind and  paddle straight. As soon as we turn a little and we put aside the wind exerts force on us and on the side of the table so it makes us turn automatically, so we must make an extra effort to redirect the table where we want. 3rd TIP: Advance the position of the body in the table. What we try to do by advancing our position is to lower the nose of the

EXPERIENCES

Hi all! How you doing? I am now in the blog to talk about last experience I had in the amazing world of SUP. We said in past posts that in Alicante there is no good weather to enjoy some modalities of SUP like surfing waves because of here, usually there is not enough wind to practice this modality. BUT, last 3, 4 days, we were the lucky ones. Here, in Alicante was good weather that caused I could introduce me to the water to enjoy the waves for my first time. It was amazing, It was incredible feelings out there. It was a cold and windy day, early in the morning and I was sleepy and angry because I love to sleep but at the same time, I felt nervous and impatient to be in the water. The morning went fine and to be my first time surfing with a SUP, I did not do it wrong. I am sure this day was the first time but not the last time, and for this week will be windy too, maybe, it is time to improve my skills...I will tell you in my next post! Carlos.

NEPTUNO! NO MORE WAVES PLEASE!

Last week, my classmates and me went cruising because of we are at the last college year! We were sailing on the Mediterranean Sea visiting the cities of Ajaccio, Civitavecchia, Napoli, Livorno and we should visited the city of Mónaco too, but, because of the weather, that did not be possible. The cruiser did start in Málaga and we cruised the sea to Barcelona, in Spain. It is amazing the life at the sea, the calm of the waves hitting the ship when there are a calm sea but, when there are heavy waves, the situacion changes. We, on the ship, listened that the captain avoided 8th metres waves going from Monaco´s port to Barcelona. The first days I thought that it would be amazing to sail with a hooked rope of the ship with my paddle surf board. As data, it was impossible to get off the ship in Mónaco because of the weather. When I woke up and saw through the window how the boat that should have taken us to the city moves I thought that it were a bad idea to get off t
