Oisin, the wind machine.

Yeah, it´s that time again, my good friend Oisin Van Gelderen came to stay for his annual dose of Fuerte magic last week and, despite an iffy forecast, we managed to sail every day of his stay, every day bar one at his fave spot Punta! It seems that whenever the big guy upstairs spots the name Van Gelderen on the Ryanair passenger list he sends a bit more wind our way.

I always look forward to his visit, it´s pretty much the highlight of my windsurfing year as we motivate each other on the water and devote the entire week to nothing except windsurfing- joy! This year was no exception and Oisin was ripping as usual (from dawn til dusk), making the most of every minute of daylight and consuming outrageous amounts of bocadillos and Red Bull in the process. A fantastic week of pure windsurfing hedonism, looking forward to next year´s visit already!
