Amazing Downwind Surfski in Tarifa, Spain

I did a surfski clinic with Oscar Chalupsky for the first time 4 years ago. At that time I had paddled surfski for 8 years and I thought I pretty much knew what there was to know about surfski. I have done more that 30 clinics with Oscar by now and my paddling skills have improved a lot and there is a lot more I want to learn. Forward stroke, equipment set up, understanding waves...it all comes together to be able to experience the paddling we do now in Tarifa. Here is a short video that will take you to the cockpit of my V10 Sport during some of the best downwind conditions we have here for learning. It is a great feeling to be in control and allow the waves and wind push you along at speeds you would never be able to achieve just paddling...

This video shows the typical conditions we have in Tarifa. It feels almost like flying. Enjoy!
