There’s a new Men’s Leader, and one of the most promising, talented young surfers in competitive history has risen to no.2 on the Women’s Side, with the current Yellow Jersey holder Carissa Moore firmly in her sights. Finals Day of the Rip Curl Narrabeen Classic presented by Corona saw clean, 2-3 foot waves, mostly lefts, with plenty of air sections, and even a few barrels. Here’s what went down.
Thats right, ladies vs. the infamous Ladies Only trail here on Vancouver’s North Shore! Christina Chappetta, Andréane Lanthier Nadeau and Georgia Astle tackle one of Vancouvers gnarliest trails, with a few fun challenges thrown in the mix.
Jason Polakow’s search for the perfect wave for windsurfing has just begun.
This time, he travels to Indonesia for a windsurf adventure like no other.
Jason’s true passion has always been chasing down some of the biggest waves and best surf conditions and he is the only wave-sailor to break away from full-time competition to challenge nature in its most extreme form. In February 2016 he became the first windsurfer to tackle the giant waves at Praia do Norte, near Nazaré, Portugal, saying: “This isn’t Maui, You don’t come out here for 20 fun waves. You come out and you feel good if you get one or two unbelievable rides.”
