We are proud to announce a specialist Windsurfing waves event PWA  on the Island of Sal, Cape Verde.
The event is set to run from Feb 22nd through to 4th March

and will take the form of a roaming contest, shifting locations to take in the best conditions available.

Sal, and its legendary breaks  such as Ponta Preta, have grown in stature in recent years as their lure to waveriding purists worldwide grows season upon season. Now with improved flight connections, and this small republic’s high profile resident Josh Angulo (CV-1) acting as both host and ambassador, the hollow, powerful waves of Ponta Preta and nearby breaks will test even the most hardcore PWA athletes.

PWA Tour manager Rich Page said ‘This will be a landmark event in PWA history. The conditions in Cape Verde provide a near
perfect wave riding environment to challenge the finest sailors on the planet. As a specialist contest, featuring the top 32
 men in the world, competitors will have a chance to purely express their abilities in a true challenge of man against the elements.
