How I started:With my father 10 years ago in Las Palmas. He bought me a Tiga 250 and I was able to sail some days in Las Canteras Beach when he could come with me. I couldnt sail alone, as I was still too young and small! I could only really start to sail by myself when I was fourteen. Then I thought I?m young and live in the best place for practicing windsurfing, why not try to be a pro? I went to Pozo every day for training and got to a good level. Later I started to do some Spanish contests in 1999, where I was very successful straight away. Since then my level has continued to improve and last year I proved that I can beat everyone at my home spot. Even the big names like Polakow and Goya!
