4 x Spanish champ

Master

5 am

I have insomnia and i decide to write about the Spanish championship a month or more ago ( don’t remember when was that anymore).

It has been really busy lately. First part of aftersurf, the terrace, is finally open after 2 years. Ad a summer time surf lessons, bjj teaching , single father with 2 kids, 5 Instagram accounts , one big wave event, one amateur event and helping all that I can on the bar or what ever needs , cleaning , rebuilding,.... it is hard just to write some lines on this blog.

I think this intro was a intro to explain how hard is to keep doing contests.. have your mind free to enjoy the time competing ..

That was my 4th straight Spanish master title. Something harder than my elite tour qualification or the European titles or a big wave title in Ireland, don’t think so.. my carrier had more stronger ups... but this keep me in shape and I see how my friends from my age love to do it and love to win and makes that strong completion vibe alive.

Thanks Dani,Milo for make a tuff last contest..

A last minute decision made me get a perfect wave far from the other competitors ( 9 points on video bellow).

Aguarium Finisterrae surf

Story behind a wave sometimes is simple.
Winter time at A Coruña.
Was cruising with my kids at the Aguarium Finisterrea and one of the gallery is right in front of the wave.
That one perspective is really gnarly as you only see rocks.
I wasn't really sure how far from the rocks were bit looks ridable .
Think that will not be a wave that I will go surf often.
If that one is good, many others might be way better.
The objective is make an event .
As the wave breaks in front of the Aguarium, by Hercules tower and ocean Coruña walk way front.
Could attack a big crow to watch the exhibition.
I am on it!
How will come thought! 

Big thanks to Sebastian Steudtner to come up from Nazare with his gear to have some fun.

Tanaka and his tnkvision company who is doing a great job on air and land.
