DISCIPLINES
What is my favourite discipline is a tough question. I love all of them. The hardcore slalom is incredible fun. Foiling is technical and can be amazing during the PWA races. I love freestyle in Fuerteventura when it is high wind and more big air style action, just flying, and waves in Pozo is all about going as high as possible which is an adrenaline kick and so cool. I basically love it all.
The jumping in Pozo just came to me. I have been to Cape Town twice and of course you jump there but it is only one month of training and it is not always that great for jumping there. Most of my sailing is slalom, foiling and freestyle. The other disciplines still help I think with your rig control and general sailing skills.
In each discipline you have to work your way up from the bottom of the pack. I started off down the ranks in freestyle. Your initial aim is to perhaps make the top sixteen. I don’t expect to rank high in slalom or waves but I am doing my time, gaining the experience and gradually working my way up.
