CAMILLE JUBAN
Once the PWA event in Tenerife is finished we normally have a few weeks off before the next event starts. In the past I have gone to Peru, Galicia or Tahiti during this break in the competition calendar. This year I was supposed to go on a trip to Fiji, however the logistics became too complex and it had to be cancelled last minute. I was glad that Leon asked me at the same time to join him on a journey to Indonesia. A trip to ‘Indo’ had been on my bucket list for many years and I didn´t understand when Leon told me he was struggling to find other motivated riders. Of course it is a huge investment as it takes time, effort and money which sponsors don´t always understand or reward. As a result, trips like this, going to remote places to find empty waves, are getting fewer and fewer. Anyway, I knew the conditions in Java can be as good as it gets for windsurfing. I was hungry for waves and even if we didn’t score, it would be a great trip to gain new experiences from a different part of the world. I didn´t hesitate to say yes to Leon, let’s go!
