thats in Costa Teg right???

I used to surf there, I had a refresher course when I lived there and when there were no waves in Famara....

Wait till they teach you how to use the buckle belt thingy... then you can really hang into the sail with your full weight and pick up speeeeeeddd

but you seem to be enjoying yourself... (i remember the muscle ache all to well)

we did some watersports yesterday of a different kind (check last post) but it was amazing to be in the water anyway...

Sort:  

In English it's mostly referred to as "harness" (with harness lines), but "buckle belt thingy" probably will be understood too.

hehe, yeah, wasnt sure if it was called harness and belt buckle thingy seemed descriptive enough

Exactly! I'm a the Pro Center from Antxon Otaegui. Did you do your refresher course with them, too?

The buckle belt thingy, haha. Yeah I've seen others starting to use it, but I still need to get more stability on the board, train the turns, etc. It's been my 4th day, so I can't expect miracles :-)

Oh the lazy river! Just checked your post. That's a nice weekend activity, too!
Seems that you're having a great summer over there. Enjoy :-)
