RRD Boards - www.robertoriccidesigns.com

During summer 2002, I met Roberto in one of his business trips to the Gorge where his product is very strong. Since then I sailed on RRD. The boards are beautiful, but also, I want to say as objectively as possible that everyone I tried has been an awesome product. Here, I want to thank Roberto to set me year after year with its freestylr and wave boards.

These spring ‘09 in Maui, I start using RRD sails: always proved, Italians are really good with designs, and once again, as well as with the boards, RRD shows it with its sails: you can go around my blog or if you want more details directly to their web site, the sails are outstanding, really beautiful and noticeable in the water. But, not only they have a great look, they work great!

Very special thanks to the team at RRD: Roberto Ricci, Dylan Duffus and Ovidio Ferrari to set me up with great boards and sails.

CHINOOK: another Gorge local brand that offers high quality carbon booms, extensions and other… products made and designed in Oregon. You will be surprised by their carbon booms: extremely stiff, strong, durable, comfortable… once you try a Chinook carbon boom, I would dare to say that you won’t go back to anything else: you won’t want another boom.

I want give very special thanks to Dan for his support to set me up with those excellent booms as well as any other component I could need, even making it possible for me to rig several sails whenever a contest would require that.

NOLIMITZ masts: my first sponsor since 2001. Known in US and Hawaii as the SKINNY, now generally called RDM (Reduced Diameter Mast), exist since 1992!!
Strangely, despite being the first company to use the RDM concept (several years before any other brand), the brand is still unknown in Europe: I decided to bring this amazing product back home in Spain. It reacts as no one else: not too stiff, not too loose, it feels just right and is extremely durable. Since I started using it, I forgot what it is to break a mast. If you are curious about this different mast, if you want to have yours, go to Nolimitz Spain in this site.

Very special thanks to Jason Lemieux, he always made sure I had the masts I needed and hopefully our team work will give a new dimension to the NOLIMITZ skinny mast through Nolimitz Spain.

Probablemente la mayor satisfacción de esta temporada 2009: contar con Turismo de Ibiza, colaborar y trabajar juntos para promover mi isla donde aprendí a navegar, a hacer mis primeros pasos como windsurfista. Espero poder mostrar a la entera comunidad windsurfista que Ibiza tiene mucho que ofrecer, mucho más que esa imagen asociada solo a la fiesta: Ibiza, una isla de paisajes y parajes naturales, de playas y aguas idílicas… un sin fin de maravillas para amantes del deporte, de las actividades al aire libre… de la naturaleza, para familias, para pasar unas vacaciones de relax.

Espero poder mostrar como windsurfista lo maravillosa que es Ibiza y estrechar esta nueva relación con el paso del tiempo. Porque mi pasión por Ibiza va a la par con la que tengo por el windsurf e Ibiza se lo merece.

Un fuerte agradecimiento a Carmen Sanchez, por haberme escuchado y puesto interés en lo que hago cuando en marzo fui a verla para hablarle de un artículo sobre Ibiza y el windsurf en la isla. Un fuerte agradecimiento por creer en mí en lo que hago y en lo que puede aportar a Ibiza.
