This opens up for a new and exciting opening for the world championship title, and what a place to finish it off. Usually the Cabo Verde event is at the beginning of the season, but this year it has been pushed to november 15-23. Will Josh Angulo make a one time appearence? Here is what he had to say himself:
“We’re firing on all cylinders at the prospect of closing the 2010 season in Cabo Verde. Historically the biggest finals ever were in Hawaii and now Cabo Verde has jumped into the driver’s seat with the billing of ‘best windsurf spot in the world’. The mixture of wavesailing’s legends clashing their epoxy swords with the PWA warriors of today should make for one of the heaviest showdowns of all time. The early winter period of November brings with it fresh ‘alizes’ breezes as well as pulsing Atlantic swells which combine for a lethal cocktail of ‘Ponta Preta on the rocks’. I personally look forward to a one-off wave competition appearance and will have to buckle down to try and hold my top spot in the lineup, but most of all I look forward to once again welcoming the world, alongside CapeVerde Investimentos and Camara Do Sal, to the friendly islands of Cabo Verde.”

Should anyone have forgotten how Ponta Preta is like when it is firing, then check out this video of Josh ripping it at the previous years contests. See you on Cabo Verde

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!
