- A week ago I came back from my three months staying in the Mother City (Cape-Town). While being back in my hometown, I was enjoying catching up with family and friends. As days passed by, the temperature but mostly the lack of wind came to a point that I became a bit anxious. Every day I checked the forecast in Holland, but day after day I saw that the wind came no further than the Mediterranean Sea. The deadline for the video entry of the Redbull Megaloop came closer and closer. I still needed some big shots and I also needed to train for the first world tour stop at the Lords Of Tram. So, one day I became so anxious that it didn’t even matter anymore where I would go, as long as there was between 30/45 knots of wind.
And I found it! Tarifa was the place where I needed to go. The forecast was looking amazing with three days of Levante and even one day with 45 knots! My girlfriend and I decided to go down there and ride as much as we possibly could. We booked everything in 40 minutes, 2 days in advance. Once we arrived in Tarifa, it was so quiet. There was almost nothing happening as far as tourism goes, but this was a unique experience for me. I could feel the pureness of Spain in the spring before all the kite spots become too crowded again, and this was truly something special.
The kitesurfing we had was just amazing. We did have a lot of gusty wind but this did not hamper the fun in any way whatsoever. I had 2 days of practicing new tricks and one day of just going all out and collecting shots for the Redbull Megaloop! This short, spontaneous trip was truly amazing and it made me realise how blessed I am as a professional kitesurfer
