King of the shorebreak
On 3rd January, with the swell pumping in Santa Maria bay, the decision was made to hold an impromtu “King of the Shorebreak” wave event.
The local boys have the shorebreak in front of the Angulo Centre dialed. In the light wind and big waves their balance is incredible. The show was amazing with goiters, one handed airs and massive light wind aerials being the norm.
Just check out the images below.
After the closely fought heats, the results were:
1. Roberto
2. Joe
3. Ariano
4. Di
Well done to all involved!

Angulo Wave Clinic Day 3
After 2 solid days of surfing and SUPing at Little Ho’okipa, the third day gave great windsurfing conditions at a break called Canoa on the west coast of Sal.
With a nice sized swell pulsing through and enough wind to float out with 5.7s and big boards, the spot was absolutely perfect for some perfect easy down the line action.
Josh gave some great on the water demos and everyone followed suit, pushing their limits for the camera.
How to cut back...
This wave clinic finishes on sunday (I think everyone will be happy for the rest!) but if you would like to get involved, there are three more to follow through the winter:
2009 / 2010 clinics are running on the following dates:
Clinic 2: 12th-17th January 2010
Clinic 3: 26th-31st January 2010
Clinic 4: 2nd-7th March 2010
For more info or to book, please contact dawn@angulotravel.com
After finishing up at Canoa, everyone was pretty tired, so we took our packed lunches and went to watch the show at Ponta Preta:

Funniest thing I’ve ever seen – Andy A...
Can you guys beleive it? Two brothers ending their exciting careers as extreme WATER-SPORTSMAN at exactly the same time!!!
ANDREW ANGULO never stopped dazzelling spectators as he carved up the shorebreak, and “SKOOGIE-BOARDED” his way into the hearts of people worldwide. Also josh with his windboarding. When ANDREW ANGULO hit his 30’s fans everywhere expected him to soften his attack, but surprising everyone, he became known as “THE GLADIATOR OF THE SHOREBREAK” with his medival like slamming style!!! Well who would have known 2009 would bring an end to two legendary careers. ANDREW ANGULO never showing signs of slowing down or letting up, said it was time to hand the flaming torch to a young up-and-coming shorebreak master.
ANDREW ANGULO (a.k.a. THE GLADIATOR OF THE SHOREBREAK) is retiring after an unbelievable strong year, coming in 24th OVERALL!!! and scooping up 9th place at the “ANDY ANGULO OPEN”, held at Makena State Beach. He originally came in 10th, but after a stern protest, and a breif violent confrontation with a seventh grader he was bumped to 9th place. Also josh did good, coming in first in sail-surfing. BY NO MEANS DO WE WANT TO DIMMINISH THE CAREER OF josh, when we asked josh who inspired him the most, he simply replied “that’s easy my older brother ANDREW ANGULO a.k.a. “THE BLACK FALCON” the guy just comes out of nowhere and slams the lip so hard, it gives me chills just to watch him. Before my older bro ANDREW ANGULO took me under his wing, I was doing “big slow faggy wus-berger turns half way down the face of the wave. It was Andrew who really taught me about the cresting part of the wave called the “lip”, before that I really was on a downward spiral earning the nick-name “FIZZLER McGINSKY”. Also, other guys were calling me “HALF-TURN HANK”, …..”CHICKEN-JIBE JERRY”,..and oh yeah…I cant forget “TWO-PUMP PETER”. ANDREW ANGULO was instrumental in forming my career like a piece of slightly damp clay. When we were kids, I used to go to Makena with him, and just study him for hours. Just observing him carving thick slabs of ocean, and throwing frightening peacock tails, I was speechless! To tell you the truth, it was like watching a “ballarena dance on the ocean on the tips of glass slippers”. Well I would like to close by saying CONGRATULATIONS you two wonderful talented waterman, ANDREW ANGULO with your relentless “marine like attack” bombording and annialating shorebreaks around the world!!!!
And also josh with your…oh man!! seems we need a new ink cartridge. One more thing Andrew sends a big “WHAT WHAT” to all his fans, thanks for all the support…I love you all. “THE GLADIATOR”
