Last weekend saw a new event and site for the tour i the beautiful area of Galicia.
Most of us had been around the area of Ferrol and Pantin for various comps but never at Playa del Razo where the event was help.
Starting on Thursday with the first round, it was a great surprise to everyone that turned up to watch. Good solid waves and beautiful blue skies )
Round 1 of boys went in and Girls.
Keshia was in on the first day, doing great in her heat and setting some good scores, which meant she advanced through to the next rounds.
Luis was only in on Friday with his Rd of 64 heat. A great start of the event with a comfortable win and moving on to the rd of 32 which was held at the end of the day.
By that time, the beach showed us another side to it, which was the one that everyone expected to see, windy, cold and grey skies with big sets that closed out the whole bay.
Despite the difficult conditions, Luis made it through and guaranteed his return on Saturday for 1/4 finals.
Keshia although advanced to the quarters, she did not manage to make it to the much desired semi final.
Saturday was still with some size but less consistent. Luis did not manage to get the best waves and just fell short of a place in the semi finals, finishing 9th overall.
After some good spanish food, great location and amazing waves, its time to head up to Lacanau in France for the final and deciding event of the year.
Luis will also be doing the QS event so, will update you with details :)
Thanks you Galicia for another fantastic weekend. Thank you ASP for all the shots :)
