2015 – FRONTON KING – A big wave and a crown

October 2015 – Galdar, Gran Canaria

A BIG COMP ON A WORLD CLASS WAVE

I am so honored to be the King in my training field.
El Fronton is among my every day waves, with el Agujero and la Guancha, in Galdar.  I live here as  it is my training residence.
It is a mythical wave with incredible local riders. They are brave, talented and proud of their waves. Thanks to you amigos for sharing your wave with me and accepting me in your community.
Then, I share this victory with all the riders who showed their level to all the international audience on the live webcasting

This event is classified as a 2015 APB Tour Special event. Therefore the Fronton King is on the way to go back in the World Tour legs. So I do hope it will be OK for next year !
A big Bravo to the organisation and to the Galdar headtown and Canary Government for supporting this event which soon will be a Gran Slam in the World Tour od bodyboard.

Thanks to Elements Prod – Cayetano González – Jesus de Leon – Richard Aleman  for the pics.

2015 – ARICA – Videos and highlights

August 2015, Chile

Videos for great memories

In the video produced by Boca Negra, we can celebrate my 10th year in Arica. It is a tribute to El Floppos, one of the best wave for bodyboarding in the world.
This spot is definitely a waves machine and a bombs raiser.

The 2015 Arica Chilean Challenge edition has been completely crazy with big scores for many competitors.
I was feeling focused, very motivated and the level of the waves and riders whet my appetite for 
fighting and ripping.
A big tribute to 
Jared Houston for this red-letter final who showed to anyone that even when everything seems to be lost, you must never give up.

Hope that through these videos you will see what bodyboarding really is : strong riding,  big focus and real friendship.

So long Arica. I already miss you. See you again and again.

Thanks to BOCA NEGRA for editing the video.
Thanks to Igor Sanchez, Jessica Becker and Nicolas Diaz for filming.

2015 – Itacoatiara Pro – Video highlights

June 2015, Brazil

The first step, a good victory

First step of the 2015 APB Tour, the Itacoatiara Pro is an incredible contest. I am the 2014 World Champion and I have to defend my title.
With big conditions for freesurf and competition.
The drones filming the action make a revolution in video and allow to understand how strong is the swell and how fluid are our manoeuvres.
Thanks to Canal Whohoo for the interview about my competitor life.
Obrigado Brazil !
Enjoy while watching these super videos.

2014 Arica Chilean Challenge – CHILE

 

 

 

ARICA 2014 – MY VICTORY

After nine years surfing El Floppo on IBA then APB Tour, with a second place in 2010, I eventually conquered this fabulous wave that is my favorite one on the World Tour. I have spendt nine years, year after year, discovering this powerful slab, these strong and solid waves, the endless swell. Nine years enjoying  the big and opened heart of Chilean people.
The  2014 final against PLC has been an incredible duel and the talent of Pierre-Louis forced me to do my best to finish the job. I am so happy and proud to raise the trophy.  I was lucky to surf in such conditions, with such a good friend and rival and so big conditions.
Que Dios le bendiga a Chile !
Arica te quiero…
Never give up, always push up your limits.

Vean a Damian King, el rider australiano mítico.
Vean que un joven Jared Youston ya estaba en la carera.
Vean a Diego Cabrera, un rider de Islas Canarias, no sabía que algún día se convertiría en mi vecino.
Vida es un camino imprevisible. Aprovechalo y compártelo!
