Novice Lanzarote

Že odštevamo dneve, ko se bo na otoku Lanzarote odvijalo Evropsko tekmovanje v windsurfingu (freestyle). Lista prijavljenih se že polni. Med prijavljenimi so že znana imena kot je Steven Van Broeckhoven, Dieter Van der Eyken in Tonky Frans, ki trenutno živi na otoku.
Lanzarote nima takega slovesa kot Gran Canaria ali Tenerife s svojo znamenito plažo El Cabezo. Ima pa nekaj vrhunskih spotov, za katere vsi pravijo, da jim ni para. Naj samo omenimo znameniti Jameos del Agua, ki je s svojimi “sideshore” pogoji in perfektnim valom zapisan na listi najboljših windsurf spotov, zato Lanzarotu tudi pravimo Evropski Havaji. Če vas mika, pridite in pri www.waterman.si vam bomo pokazali vse vodne vragolije, ki se jih na otoku lahko počne.

While winter storm Hercules was battering Europe Chris McClean of Atlantic Diversions slipped south to the Canary Islands, aka the Hawaiian islands of the Atlantic. Hooking up with Jose Maria Cabrera in Lanzarote, he spent a couple of days chasing shelter from the storm as it blew up the coast. After a lot of searching the they scored a rare point at the bottom of a mammoth hike down a volcano. They also scored Lanzarote’s jewel ‘El Quemao’ and the ever-present left ‘La Izquierda’. Along the way Chris was introduced to a side of Lanzarote he never expected, a beautifully stark, windswept, volcanic landscape full of rain, sandstorms and fog. Chris wants to offer a big ‘muchas gracias’ to all the people he met along the way. www.urchinhowl.com
