FREESTYLE TRICKERY
My final day was windy first thing in the morning, before a lull around midday. Taking a quick stroll past Jibe City, I was lucky enough to catch local light wind guru Caesar Finies in action. Now this guy is a pure magician at light-wind freestyle and to see him spinning and throwing his sail around is pretty mind blowing to say the least. The question is often asked how to get more people into windsurfing and I can think of a lot worse ideas than to simply to stick this guy on a world tour to busy beaches to put on shows of what he can do in light winds. Caesar is a crowd puller, an entertainer, spectacular to watch and he only needs a few knots of wind. What he does looks fun, a challenge – and it’s all done on beginner kit. What more can you ask for?
