Kids camp Miami

Colette and I were very excited putting together this kids camp on my pass threw Miami, thanks for the great help of Adventure Sports Miami, Kanahakai and Hot Sails Maui for sending us all the kids gear, it sure helped a lot! I remember when I started to windsurf at 8 the gear was not as modern as today, I started on a rushwind  3.0 which was so heavy compared to now!

It was awesome seeing 28 kids showing up with there parents, from 4 to 12 year old, they all were so excited to step on a windsurf board for there first time,  I could’nt describe a better feeling teaching these kids and most important simply seeing them smile and just have an awesome time in the water, please check out these photos to experience and help this new breed of future champions, 

Colette y yo estuvimos muy emocionados para realizar este campamento de niños en mi pasada por Miami, gracias por la gran ayuda de Adventure Sports Miami, Kanahakai y Hot Sails Maui para enviarnos todo los equipos de niños,  recuerdo cuando empecé a hacer windsurf a las 8 anos y no eran tan moderno como hoy en día, empecé con un 3.0 rushwind que era bastante pesada en comparación con ahora! Fue buenisimo ver los 28 niños aparecer en el campamento con sus padres, de 4 a 12 años de edad, todos estaban tan entusiasmados para windsurf por primera vez, es la mejor sensación enseñar estos niños y lo más importante, simplemente verlos sonreír y que tengan un momento increíble en el agua, por favor chequeen estas fotos abajo y apoyen esta nueva generación de futuros campeones

DG Back on Maui

News by Hot Sails Maui:

You re going to be seeing a lot more of Diony over the next couple of months, back from his recent trip to Los Roques Island he is now in Maui and he is working hard with the team already. To celebrate having our team rider back (and also Leap Day) on the island the office was closed early and we all hit up Ho'okipa for an afternoon session where we were joined by a bunch of our Maui based riders. What is clear is that the arrival of Diony back at Ho'okipa is certainly going to make some sparks fly so we are looking forward to some waves and wind over the coming weeks. During his trip he will be helping Paul & Tom with the development for the FreeSTYLE Pro, the 2013 GPS and a number of interesting projects which are confidential at this time.

Diony & his crew at Funeral Point

After many years of traveling the world Diony has been working a number of plans recently to rediscover the magic that can be found a little closer to home. Isn't funny how we rush around and around but sometimes miss the gems that lie in front of us!

Funeral Point - what a beautiful location...

 6am 1st session

"The new season is just starting here in the Southern Caribbean so everyone is quite desperate for some swell, Margarita is just above the equator and enjoys good climate year around but good swells here are not easy to get since we have all the islands blocking us north and east from us, so you got to be on top of the forecast!

We headed north west to this spot called Funeral Point, (discovered by my friend Carlos Vasquez and a friend of his called El Megatronico) the name doesn’t sound very attractive but I can assure you that it was the contrary, super peaceful and completely isolated in the cactus field of the dessert! We did not even have telephone signal incase of an emergency! It felt great to totally disconnect with the world, we arrived at dawn before the sun came out with a few good friends, Deivis Paternina (Pro Freestyler), Edwing Fernandez (Free Surfer) and Reinaldo Aparicio (Kite Surfer and Free Surfer) I was the first one to get into the water, the surf was epic, long perfect peeling glassy left and rights!

The wind started to fill in early at 9am since it was a bit stormy so I jumped on my new AHD Sea Lion Pro SUP to get a fewwaves before it got too windy! At 10am I was already on the water wave sailing with Deivis, it was his first time on the waves here, he had a funny style but it was great to see one of the El Yaque boys wanting to learn how to wave ride, it was a little side on with occasional gust to do a couple jumps and to hit a few lips!

I’m really looking forward going to Los Roques very soon! Just waiting on the catamaran that will be taking us there! Conditions are looking great for the next days, Los Roques probably going to be mast High or more, hope to get some conditions here on Margarita also!" Diony Guadagnino V69
