My home is island of Sal but Cabo Verde is not only my island, there is 15 others. Bogo from Poland who is responsible for 2009/2010 Angulo board graphic just sent us some sweet footage from neighbour island of Boa Vista. Enjoy the action.

The year has started up with some fantastic waves here in Santa Maria, right in front of the centre.

Today feels like a summer day with big waves, light wind and lots of people sunbathing on the beach.

Check out the photos of some of today’s action.

Happy New Year

A 4m swell has been pounding the west coast for the past couple of days and the big wave surfers have been out enjoying the powerful surf at Ponta Preta.

Check out this video of some big wave action:

Angulo Wave Clinic Day 3

emile — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 15:59:55 +0000

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: 12^th-17^th January 2010

Clinic 3: 26^th-31^st January 2010

Clinic 4: 2^nd-7^th March 2010

After finishing up at Canoa, everyone was pretty tired, so we took our packed lunches and went to watch the show at Ponta Preta:

The Angulo Wave Clinics Commence!

emile — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 20:56:28 +0000

Tuesday 8th December was the first day of Winter Angulo Wave Clinics.

Josh led the surf tour across the island and the first two days have given the guys great surf and SUP conditions at Little Ho’okipa on the West Coast.

With the swell continuing to pump, the rest of the clinic looks great.

Pictures speak a thousand words!

Next Generation

Now I can imagine the pride and happiness my dad felt when he saw me catching my first wave. I’m now the proud dad of a third generation ripper, Noah Angulo.

Hi Everybody,
My name is Tulpe Born and I have been a windsurf instructor for over 15 years and greatfully last winter I started to recieve support from Josh with equipment. I have just spent yet another fantastic winter season on Sal/ Cabo Verde where I was working in a windsurf center alongside the Angulo center. Although the centre I work in promotes different brands to Angulo, I can usually be found with a Chango under my feet. Josh asked me several times to write on this Blog about why I love to ride Angulo boards so much but up until now I have not got around to doing it, as riding them is far more fun than sitting on a computer and writing about it (especially when any of the numerous wavespots on Sal is going off). But now that the dust is settling on yet another fabulous winterseason and I find myself twidling my thumbs back home in Germany whilst I wait for the highseason to start in Greece I seem to be daydreaming more and more about my babies (boards) and thought I would take this opportunity to put some words together.

Why do I use Angulo-Boards? For the simple reason that they make me ride a lot better. The Changos turn so well and help my waveriding a great deal. The board let’s me do what I have in mind and I am not restricted by my equipment. Wide or tight turns, the Chango doesn’t mind, it just carries the speed through any turn. What I do with the next wave is up to me and not the board’s specs. I am not a boardtester from a magazine but I can certainly tell when a board feels good and when it doesn’t. Well, my Changos feel great and they rock and they made me a better sailor. And to me that’s what matters…
See you on C.V.
Tulpe
