Check what victor had to say about the trip below:
Victor Fernandez:
‘This was my 6th trip to South Africa. Every time I come here I get amaze by this country, how people live and how consistent conditions are for windsurfing. This year one of the worst parts of the trip was the water crisis as this makes you think way more how vulnerable we are in this planet and how important water can be.

If there would be something like a ‚PWA fair play award‘ Victor Fernandez and Klaas Voget definitely have to be nominated for always paying attention to other sailors. Only a few years ago they pulled out Boujmaa in Hookipa who would have drowned without their help for sure. Now they pulled out their team mate in SA. Good job guys!
Reply@Ben: What about an anual windsurfing TV award for ‚outstanding fairness‘ or ‚Windsurfing-TV Baywatch-Award‘. Ceremony could be hosted by Pam Anderson …
