About me
I first start learning in 1988 in Puerto Rico with my first board, an original Windsurfer board (the one with a bed sheet for a sail).
Made my first jump in a 12' Mistral Competition and since then I've been telling myself, today is the day I will go for a forward loop, but chicken out every single time for the last 20 years.
I had a Yugo.
