Since I got back from the Kite Punks, the wind has been blowing constantly from one direction every day, I’ve never had that much wind in Marbella before. The first couple of days I had to rest because I twisted my knee in La Manga, but after seeing the palm trees move every day I just couldn’t resist and started kiting again, which appeared to be a good treatment, the pain has already fully vanished by now. Mauricio left me his wakeskate in La Manga so I explored some new territory and wow, its really fun, with my average skills on the skateboard I landed a Switch BS 360 Pop Shove-it the 2nd day! The partying is ok, the cable-ski is just 5min. from my house, so I’m not getting bored. The day before yesterday was light, but there were some nice waves at Cabo Pino, see the Gallery for the pics.

I arrived in Malaga 3 days ago, my flight was with Malaysia Airlines Perth-Kuala Lumpur-London-Malaga, they charged me 900 $ for my boardbag and we arrived late in London, so I missed my flight to Malaga and had to wait the whole day at the airport for the next one, so I guess that was the last time with that Airline for me…
The day after my arrival the wind was on so I kited at Heavens beach, which practically is my home spot, met the old buddies there and had a fun session, although it was dam choppy for ma bindings.
I gonn stay here for now and train for the PKRA in France where I wanna compete on bindings, lets see how that goes!

One day Carlos Saez, who is a Balance co-fonder and a really good friend, came over to San Pedro de Alcantara to film Alvaro and me. That footage is from late in the afternoon, after a fine good meal in an outstanding restaurant next to the spot. Its short and simple, a tiny impression of a typical day in San Pedro and its almost 2 months ago. download here
