Having been to Margarita a couple of times, I know how good it is to be somewhere hot, windy and rather pleasant on Feb/March. Rather than go to Margs again, however tempting a full-on Cribboday might be, I've booked two weeks in Cabo Verde with a few of the Ocean Motion people. Adam's my room mate for two weeks, he's laid back enough to be livable with, with Gen and Beth coming for a week. I rather suspect Beth is looking for more challenging waves than me, but we'll see. She sailed at Punta Preta last time she went there, and that's THE wave spot.
So what are my aims for this trip?
- Gybing - yup, wanna nail this much better
- Proto-freestylee - defo going to try some moves here, even if it's as simple as switch stance and heli-tacks
- Waves - the main beach (Santa Maria) has ok waves in places
Of course, we can always take the option of getting a taxi to a different beach! And somehow I'm tempted to try kitesurfing... Nah!
