BOUJMAA GUILLOUL
The pool experience was lot of fun at the same time kind of special in a way. Most rotations had no feeling without the wind. I think to make it into the straps and be towed full power behind the ski just needed experience and after a while it was easier. Even though the distance was short to get comfortable it was still doable. It was a lot of pressure with the crowd, but still fun and I think it was great for the sport to entertain so close to the spectators, which gave them an idea about how crazy the sport is and they can have a better view of how radical windsurfing can be. Anyway, windsurfing in a pool in my opinion looks more radical than any other sports in pools!

To nail a big jump your timing had to be absolutely perfect. It was very important to let go of the rope at the last moment to obtain the highest speed possible at the wave to grab the maximum height. Once you’re in the air you have the feeling of jumping without wind, which was weird but occasionally we landed upright. I think it was a sensational show, with a unique atmosphere. Every time one of us made a sick jump we were screaming, jumping in the air and going crazy. I hope this event will continue for many more years because I think it was an amazing experience!
