Update from Friis

Once again I find myself back in Cape Town, South Africa for another winter of endless waves and windy beaches. This year has been a little different though. I joined a group of friends where I stay in a little wind hut in the garden of a hostel in the middle of Bloubergstrand. It’s been a great way to meet new people and it’s a perfect base for windsurfing north of Cape Town. Life down here runs in a very similar routine every day, you wake up, tjeck the forecast, the tide and the weather stations, then you go for a session, get back to the house for lunch, relax a bit and then you go for an evening session. By the time you get back home again you are so tired you only want to go to bed.

On the water this year I got it in my head that I wanted my Wave 360’s ready for competition and I’ve been charging every single wave hard to get the trick consistent. It’s not an easy thrick to get right because it requires perfect timing and choice of wave and section, but I’m starting to get the feeling for it now and my consistency is much better than before. I caught a few of them on my GoPro Hero 3 and put together this little video:
