    MARCILIO BROWNE: THREE IN A ROW!
    MARCILIO BROWNE: THREE IN A ROW!MARCILIO BROWNE: THREE IN A ROW!After notching up his third straight win, Marcilio Browne is on a serious roll this season. We caught up with the reigning world champion fresh off his latest victory in Maui to find out how hes maintaining this unstoppable momentum and why hes feeling stronger than ever, both on and off the water. In this interview, Marcilio shares whats driving his success and how he continues to stay at the top of his game.Photos: Fish Bowl DiariesCHILETell us about your trip to Chile?MB: It was great to go back in Chile, I have been there a bunch in the past and love the place, was excited to see friends and sail those perfect lefts again :).How did you fly from Maui?MB: It was a long trip for sure, I travelled via San Francisco and Houston. I was definitely pretty tired by the time I got there, but luckily got a day of rest before the wind came up. That always helps.Did you rent your own truck?MB: No, luckily, I had friends who let myself and Robby use their truck, it worked out perfectly! We also stayed at their house in Matanzas, which was beautiful and super comfortable. Also, we were staying super close to the spot. It was a mere two-minute drive to the parking lot at the beach. Cant beat that!How many days before the event did you arrive?MB: I think i arrived four days before the event started and luckily scored two fun sessions at Matanzas for some warm-up sessions. The conditions were insane, but it was hard training as the crowds were crazy and everyone was hungry for waves and getting tuned up for the events.What gear did you bring?MB: I brought all my Goya sails the Banzaii 11 from 4.0m, 4.2m, 4.5m, 4.7m, 5.0m, 5.3m and 5.5m. Also, I brought back-ups for 4.7m, 5.0m and 5.3m (10 sails!). For my boards I had 2x Goya 84L, 2x 88L and 1x 94All quads! On top of that I had 4 booms, 6 masts, 5 extensions and 4 bases.How tough was the level this year and what was the atmosphere like at the contest?MB: The level was super high and the atmosphere was fun but intense. It is always a bit like that right before an event! Everyone wants to get their waves and practice in! The sailors are a bit more eager and serious than usual, especially at Matanzas being a point break, it was challenging to get sets for sure.What was your strategy this yeargo hard or go homeor try and play it safe as you made your way through to the finals?MB: The main thing for me was to be on the sets. Last year I felt like I sailed ok but I kind of picked the wrong waves, this year most of my focus went into wave selection. After that there was no room to play it safe! I was going for it on every ride and taking risks. At this level its either that or pack your bags and go home!What was your toughest heat before the final?MB: All heats were hard, but especially the semis the day before was tough! It was nearly dark and there was no wind in the shore breakso one bad choice and you could have spent the heat swimming. That to me was the hardest one for sure! It was also probably the only heat I rode a 5.3m!Was the tabletop aerial part of you game plan this year in Chile?MB: The tabletop air was not exactly part of my plan, but that is a move I like and also can only do it at port tack, so I was looking forward to try and get a good one during the event! I really enjoy that move and dont get a chance to try it that often, so stoked it worked out.How different is it sailing in Matanzas to Topocalma?MB: Night and day difference! Matanzas is a much more powerful wave, kind of like a heavy beach break that breaks lots of gear, light wind on the waves and lots of current with slightly cross on wind. It is definitely a challenging spot to sail, but really fun when you get it right, it is also very good for tricks.Topocalma is just perfect it is full skate park conditions, not as much consequence and just a dreamy wave with cross-off wind. I have dad some of the best sessions of my life out there!What were you thought when they announced the finals would be in Topocalma?MB: I was super stoked it was my first session there of the trip pretty much and felt really special to score it with only three guys for thirty minutes during the final. To be honest I was just excited to go sailing that day! It felt like a real treat to have the final there and I am stoked it worked that way. In the past I scored that place a lot with Swifty, but in recent years during the event not as much because of the crowds, so it was nice to get it uncrowded again after so many years.In the final did you know that Marc had a super high scoring wave or were you just concentrating on your own heat?MB: I had no idea, there was no way to know anyones scores, so I was just focusing on my own heat. But for sure I knew those guys must have been posting high scores. They had all been ripping throughout the event.How did it feel when you nailed that goiter on your last wave?MB: It felt great, I was stoked to land it as I knew it was a bit off a bigger section, it was more critical than the ones I had done before! So, I imagined it would have been a good score, I also had a couple of decent turns before on the start of the wave.It must feel pretty satisfying to win against such tough competition in Chile this year?MB: 100 %, the level was so high! So many guys were sailing well. Guys like Marc Pare, Victor Fernandez, Morgan Noireaux, Antoine Martin, Swifty and the Fabres brothers the list goes on and on! The contest was very difficult from round one and it forced me to really concentrate on my own waves and not think too much about how good everyone else was sailing.MAUIYou then flew back and had to get ready for the Maui ProAMwhat was it like to recover and get ready for the next event?MB: There was not much time to recover! I just went straight into it full on. Maybe that is why I have a head cold now and feel so tired he he! But yes, I just went straight back into lots of sailing, jumping practise, trying boards and basically many hours on the water. After the event when I finally stopped, I realized how tired I actually was.How were the conditions for the Maui Pro Am?MB: It was really fun, typical Maui Spring conditions, but the wind was above average. I was riding mostly 4.2m, which is kind of rare in Hookipa for me. The waves were great, fun size, overhead to logo high, which is pretty much the best Hookipa size I would say.You must be stoked to win the event also on top of Chile and JapanThat is three in a row?MB: Yes three in a row! I still cant believe it. I am super stoked but dont want to be thinking about it too much! My focus is just keeping sailing and enjoying every moment in the water.How does it feel to keep winning?MB: It is a satisfying feeling, kind of surreal to be honest. I am trying not to focus on that, but simply to keep working on my weaknesses and keep enjoying the process as much as possible!What about the likes of Marc Pare and Takara Ishii they are also pushing hard at the moment?MB: Those guys are ripping and they both have been doing all the right things, like travelling around, dialling in their gear and spending time on a huge variety of conditions and its showing on their sailing and their results.What gear were you using at Hookipa?MB: During the event I rode the Goya 4.2m mostly, 4.5m for the final and my 84L custom board for the whole event.What was it like having a Spring event in Maui?MB: It was great, it felt like a completely different spot as the conditions were so different from the winter. There was plenty of wind, smaller waves and we even counted a jump. I had a blast and felt like most of the competitors had a great time too. Hopefully this event will become a tradition again also during the spring.What would you say is the key to your success at the moment?MB: I am not sure. I have trained extra hard for the past five or six years and it is nice to see the fruits of it for sure. I have also dedicated a lot more time working on my mind-set, for those key moments. So, I feel a bit more relaxed and happier than I did in the past! It is more fun competing this way. Obviously, I still have low, stressful moments! It is not all happy days all the time, but having kids put things in perspective of what really matters and it definitely took some of the pressure off those events for me.What is the plan for the next few months?MB: Enjoy time with my family and get ready for Pozo :)!The post MARCILIO BROWNE: THREE IN A ROW! appeared first on Windsurf Magazine.

    MARC PAR: ON A ROLL!
    MARC PAR: ON A ROLL!MARC PAR: ON A ROLL!In the high stakes event on the WWT / PWA World tour, few rivalries are as electric right now as Marc Par versus reigning world champion Marcilio Browne. After back-to-back second-place finishes in pumping waves of Chile, then at Hookipa in Maui; Marc has firmly cemented his place as a top contender on the world stage.We caught up with the Spanish ripper to unpack what went down in those nail-biting finals, how hes dialling in his gear, and what it will take to edge out Brawzinho in the battles to come. From that epic final in Topocalma to springtime swells and screaming winds in Maui, Marc shares whats fuelling his fire and whats next on the horizon.Photos: Fish Bowl Diaries.ChileHow intense was the competition this year in Chile?MP: The level was insanely high this year in Chile and anyone could win or at any moment. It made it super exciting but nerve racking at the same time, specially the first few heats. The head judge made the call of making short heats so we could finish in time, so it was a lot more intense than normal, as sets were not as consistent.What equipment were you riding?MP: I rode mainly Simmer 5.0m and 5.3m in Matanzas combined with a new 93L proto concept that we called Flyby and a 90L Flywave. For the Final in Topocalma I dropped down to 4.5m and an 84L version of that 93L Flyby.When the event got moved to Topocalma did you feel that suited you?Ive sailed a fair bit in Topocalma and I absolutely love those kind of conditions, so yes, I felt in a wayI feltit suited me!How did it feel in the final when you nailed that amazing wave?MP Honestly, I was just enjoying the sailing a lot overall, so I was just super stoked to be out on the water with some of the best guys in the world!Did you think you had the win after that or are you always wary of the likes of Marcilio etc?MP: I knew I was first, because I went in for a gear change and they told me I was leading the heat. I couldnt relax with those rippers in the final though. After the gear change. I saw Braw getting that one wave with the goiter and I kind of knew he might have got a good score on that one.How long did you stay in Chile and where were you staying?MP I went there a month and a half before the event, stayed there for 10 days and then went to Puerto Rico for the 4 star event. I went back after and was there, two weeks before the event, when everyone showed up. I stayed at my friends Richard and Vicentes house (which has the craziest views!).Were any of the crew from Simmer out in Chile too?MP: Yes! Peter Anjou, our Creative Director came over to bring some gear for me and document the build up and the event, which was awesome! It was really nice to have him on the beach giving support!MauiHow did you get to Maui from Chile with all the equipmentwhat is all the gear you have with you?MP: I took a flight from Santiago de Chile and had a layover in Atlanta. Check-in was pretty expensive (700$) and luckily I had given some of my gear to Peter to take back to Europe. I took four boards and sails from 4.2m to 5.3m and a backup 5.0m.Where are you staying in Maui?MP: Im staying at my friend Adam Lewiss house over on Maui! Its pretty cool actually, because we came together with Adam before the Covid breakout in 2020 and he met his wife then and he just stayed and built a very nice life over here since. Im very proud and happy for him! Hes a very good friend.How was that first day of the MFC ProAm with the strong winds and building swell?MP: It was awesome! Its very nice to have an event at Hookipa in Spring as wind tends to be stronger and the swell is still around. We got this very fun swell from logo to mast high sets and wind for 4.2m 4.5m sails. The jumping part was hard as the wind was really offshore, but it was a blast to compete here with such fun conditions.Was it crazy conditions or was itmanageable?MP: On the right gear it was manageable, but it was still really hard work and difficult to choose right sail size and board!What gear did you use?MP: I used 4.2m and 4.5m Blacktip (prototypes) and 84L and 88L Flyby concept boards.How does it feel to take two seconds at the last two events?MP: It feels amazing! In Chile was a bit of a bitter-sweet feeling after missing out on 1st. But here on Maui, with so many locals and legends and being Braws home turf, it was really special, as it meant I had to beat guys like Morgan and Bernd to make it in that final. On top of that it feels really good after putting all this work over the years here at Hookipa to finally get a top result!What is it going to take to beat Marcilio Brownehe also seems to be on a roll?MP: Braw is sailing amazing and we all know how good he is everywhere and this is what I look up to and admire from him. I think with contests its a matter of doing the work pre-contest and then having a bit of that luck going your way in the heat! But definitely on the factors I can control on my end, I will keep on putting the work to try and come up on top!What are you plans for the next few months?MP: Im going to focus on product development with Simmer and looking ahead to the Canaries events to prepare for that and be as dialled in as possible!The post MARC PAR: ON A ROLL! appeared first on Windsurf Magazine.

    THE NEXT GENERATION : IZZY ADCOCK
    THE NEXT GENERATION : IZZY ADCOCKTHE NEXT GENERATION:IZZY ADCOCKWere stoked to launch a brand-new series spotlighting the rising stars on the UK windsurfing sceneThe Next Generation! First up is Izzy Adcock: wave-chaser, ex-racer, van-dwelling oceanographer, and all-round legend in the making.Photos: John Carter and courtesy Izzy Adcock.IZZY ADCOCK Home Spot: Overcome, Weymouth DOB: 04/04/2002 Height/Weight: 167cm / 51kg Studies: Oceanography @ University of SouthamptonHow did you get into windsurfing? Where did you first learn, and what was your first board?IA: I learned to windsurf at the age of three. I think my dad wanted an excuse to spend his weekends at the beach again, so he got me and my sister windsurfing as soon as he could. At that point in my life, I was a downwind specialistI remember heading straight downwind on my 0.8m sail and an old Fanatic Snake(my Nanas old windsurfing board), with my dad running through the waist-high water behind me in Poole Harbour. Then I was dragged back upwind, ready to go again.Where is your home spot and which spots do you normally sail?IA: Thats a difficult one, as I seem to be all over the place at the minute with university, but Id say Overcombe in Weymouth is my home spot. Its not the best location, but it definitely has its days (albeit few and far between).I windsurf at Kimmeridge and Ringstead quite a bit at the moment, as they almost always seem to be worth the extra time spent driving (Im probably biased as I think these are my favourite spots).Would you call yourself a racer or a wave sailor at heart, and why?IA: Id definitely say wave sailor. My roots are in racing (and its in my blood, with my grandad and dad having competed), but when I think about now or the future, Im always looking to spend more time in the waves.When did you start racing, and what events have you been to?I first started racing when I was about eight, competing at my local Team 15 events, and it just snowballed from there. I did the Techno 293 events nationally, then internationally, taking me all over Europefrom Sicily to Greece to Latvia.After my time on Techno, I got the foiling bug and spent my time kite-foiling and windsurf-foiling. I put racing on the back burner at the end of 2020 after making the difficult decision that I couldnt put on the weight for foiling (being 20kg too light) and that it was too expensive for me to continue with.Do you prefer fin or foil racing?IA: For me, foil racing came with a bit more adrenaline, which was fun, but it had lost the more technical playing a game of chess on the water element that came with course racing on the fin.What are your best results to date?IA: My best result on paper is probably the 2019 IFCA Foil World Championship, where I finished 3rd woman. This then took me to the World Sailing sea trials (ironically named, as we were at Lake Garda) in 2019 as one of 20 sailors helping to select the equipment for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.That followed by plenty of national course racing event/series wins back in the day. But, as with sport, there are definitely results that dont sound as good on paper but that Im more proud of.What sailors do you look up to?IA: There are so many great windsurfers, where do I start?! Other than the obvious big names, for me its usually whoever is down the beach, wringing out loads of joy out of the south coast mush. What are you studying?IA: Im studying Oceanography at the University of Southampton, so my whole life is pretty centred around the ocean, whether its work or play. Thats normally followed up with, So, whats your favourite sea creature? But its actually a more physics- and maths-based degree.During term time, Im in full chaos mode at the moment, living in my van to keep costs down so I can put myself through my degree.What are your ambitions in windsurfing?IA: My ambitions probably dont sound super exciting, but I hope Im still having this much fun out on the water for as long as I can. I want to be able to build a life where I can keep dropping everything when the forecast is on.What countries have you travelled to on windsurfing trips?IA: I spent last summer in Perth, Western Australia, on a semester abroad as part of my degree. While I was there, I managed to windsurf in some cool spots despite it being the off-season. A particular favourite was Coronation Beach, about five hours out from Perth, but definitely worth the trip.Another recent windsurfing trip took me to Fuerteventura. My sister was spending some time out there, and I managed to fly out on a forecast and crash on her sofa. It was an epic tripwalking my kit down to Rocky Point every day. I really fell in love with the place and hope to go back one day (and have Rocky Point toast again!).Have you enjoyed the past UK winter for wave sailing?IA: Its been pretty great! I think I was out in every named storm that hit anywhere near the South Coast this year. Weve had a fair few crazy daysI think Ive used my Duotone Super Hero 3.0 way more than I had anticipated!Im a little bit gutted we havent had more named storms this year, as the name for the I storm was going to be Izzy, and I dont think well make it that far through the alphabet.Where have been your most epic sessions?IA: At the 2023 Tiree Wave Classic, a session that really sticks in my mind is the last day at Balephuil. I remember it as a turning point in my wave sailingnone of us wanted to go out, but they were sending us either way. I went out, got munched, but still had some fun. For a while, it was my If you can do that, you can do this session.A super memorable windsurfing session from this winter was my first Broadbench session at Kimmeridge, despite the fact it was close to freezing with the wind chill. Its such a magical spotbut with pretty high consequences due to the slab of rock the waves break onto.Who are your sponsors, and is there anyone youd like to thank?IA: A huge thank you to my sponsors: SUP Company, Duotone UK, Ion UK, and K66. Its been game-changing to be on such good kit.Windsurfing comes with an amazing sense of community so the list of people to thank is never ending. Ive been helped by countless people throughout my time on the waterpeople lending me gear to compete on, giving me their old kit, trips to events, somewhere to stay in WA, a drive to park on in Southampton and loads of beach chat/advice.I hope the sport stays that way, and Ill always try to pay that kindness forward.Last but not least, thank you to my parents for getting me into windsurfing and taking me across Europe as a kid to compete, and to my sister, Mia, for being my biggest fan.Izzy self portrait!The post THE NEXT GENERATION : IZZY ADCOCK appeared first on Windsurf Magazine.

    WINDSURF NEWS BULLETIN!
    WINDSURF NEWS BULLETIN!WINDSURF NEWS BULLETIN!Summers rolling into Europe and that means one thing; the windsurfing season is about to crank into overdrive! Meanwhile, the PWA racing season is about to heat up with the first event in Guadeloupe, while over in Hawaii the MFC Maui ProAm has been firing on all cylinders. And just when we thought the off-season shuffle was done and dusted, the transfer markets thrown us a couple of spicy curveballs. So, lets hook in and find out what has been happing in out there in the wonderful windsurfing world!Photos: Fish Bowl Diaries!/ John Carter.MFC MAUI PRO-AM 4 STAR!World Wave TourPWAWell, there was no hanging around in Maui for the MFC Maui ProAm. The opening day saw nuclear winds (for Maui) and a tasty long period swell that only meant the action was absolutely nuts right off the bat! The crazy winds meant jumps came into the equation and we saw the likes of Hayata and Takara Ishii sending it to the skies at Hookipa with some monster forward and back loops. The Japanese crew is definitely not here just to make up the numbers making this year, and there is plenty of hungry talent joining the tour that can definitely cause some major upsets.Despite the stacked fleet competing in Maui, which included the likes of Kai Lenny, Levi Siver and Camille Juban, once again it was the three-time world champ, Marcilio Browne that delivered! Yep, Brawzinho bagged another win; his third in a row this year. The guys on fire. Again, finishing just behind him (as in Chile on port tack a week or so ago) was the ever-consistent Marc Par, who will be happy with two seconds, but will no doubt be out to get his revenge on Browne in the Canary Islands. Rounding out the top four were Takara Ishii and Robby Swift, both going full beast-mode with some crazy goiters, doubles, and towering back loops.But what is it going to take to beat Marcilio this season?He is on firewith three straight wins! Brownes next battleground will be Pozo, Gran Canaria, where he only finished in 9th last season, so that will be a real challenge with the likes of Marino Gil, Philip Koester and Marc Pare gunning to take him down!MARCILIO BROWNEIt means a lot to win any event in Maui. Hookipa is almost like a different place in the Spring to the Autumn event. The Aloha is normally light winds and bigger waves. In the spring we get to have a jump. That brought a lot of variety to the table. We dont really have many starboard tack jumping events. I think that adds a lot to the tour. It is a key time of the year in Maui. A lot of the sailors are out here anyway! The community seemed really stoked. It was also great to see the youths here and that was a great eye opener to see them ripping.MARC PAREIt almost meant more to me to come second in Maui than to come second in Chile. I have spent so much time in Maui and I think it is the hardest place to sail. It feels good that all the hard work is paying off after all those years coming here. I had a lot of tough heats and beat some big names, so I am very happy about that!TAKARA ISHIIIt is so good to make the final, that is three podiums in a row for me. I am stoked!ROBBY SWIFTI have competed in Maui about twenty times and my goal has always been to make it to a final. I was in the semi final a bunch of times and never quite made it before! It was special to make it but at the same time a bit annoying to come fourth. It is the one place you dont want to get in a four-man final. There were only twenty-four guys in the event but every heat was tough. It was fun to have jumps too because that mixed it up.In the womens competition Marine Hunter from France showed a similar approach to Jane Seman in Chile with her go hard or go home attitude! Her full throttle, vertical style and big hits, earned her the victory in Hookipas wild waves! Lisa Wermeister from Guadeloupe is starting to shine on tour and took second ahead of Maria Andres in third, with Collette Guadagnino taking fourth.MARINE HUNTERI was really trying to detach myself from the result. I have been on a losing steak in competitions for the past two years, so I was getting a bit depressed. I was just trying to focus on doing what I really like. I felt a bit detached from the contest as I was just trying to sail the way I want. Obviously, I am really happy I won. I know that my winning streak is not going to last forever. It was anew sensation for me to win. It meant a lot to me because I have had some very rough moments during the past few months. It was nice for me to go out and perform like that. It was a great surprise for me to finally win and it meant a lot!LISA WERMEISTERIt was my first ever final and first ever podium. That is a huge achievement for me. I feel amazing. Maui is my favourite spot to sail so that makes it feel even better.MARIA ANDRESMy goal was to reach the final. I would have liked to have won but the level in Maui is really high. You dont see the locals on tour, but they rip. So, I was happy to make the final, but I really wanted better than third. I am happy for Marine, she really sailed well to win it. It was great to see Collette in the final too. What a great event!COLLETTE GUADAGNINOIt was amazing to be out there in that final. I entered just to have some fun. It was a few years since I sailed Hookipa. There was just a great atmosphere and camaraderie on the water with the girls.The only downside was the fact the event was over in a couple of days but when Hookipa is firing you just have to go for it!RACE MODE: GUADELOUPE INCOMINGThe first racing event of the season is only a few days away now and many sailors will be jetting across the globe compete in beautiful Guadeloupe. Just when we though the dust had settled this transfer seasonbam! plot twist, two big names decided to shuffle the deckMACIEK RUTKOWSKIRight before the offthe news dropped that the 2022 world champion, Maciek Rutkowski has signed with JP Australia for the upcoming race season. That makes him fully onboard with JP / NeilPryde for 2025!Here is the joint social media post between Maciek and JP:It is with utmost pleasure that JP-Australia and Maciek Rutkowski announce the start of their partnership for 2025 and beyond.Maciek: Super happy to finally share the news! A JP Freestyle Wave 78 was actually the first board I owned and I always felt things will come full circle sooner or later! It took over 20 years but now were here! Last year I chose to ride JP for Slalom-X and felt incredibly comfortable and confident, so with the S-Tec being an upgrade I cant wait to put them through the World Title chase again! Hopefully I can also contribute in R&D and other areas so Im beyond excited to see what this collaboration will bring in the long term as well!JP: Were extremely pleased with this signing. With Maciek riding Neilpryde last year we got to experience his intense drive, dedication and professionalism so we felt very strongly about bringing him onto JP-Australia as well. With the right mix of talent, energy and experience we feel Maciek is a good bet for the top positions on the PWA racing tour in both disciplines, but we feel like by now his presence goes beyond just racing as well. And with the Guadeloupe World Cup around the corner, we cant wait to watch him fly on his new boards.BRUNO MARTINIOne of last years most promising big guns on the racecourseBruno Martinihas just announced he has switched from JP / NeilPryde to S2 Maui sails and I99 boards! We dont know if that is a result of the Maciek signing at this stage! His comment on social media was a bit crypticNew sponsor, new energy. I could spend a lot of time explaining everything that happened this winter and the reasons behind these choices, but Id rather not. Instead, Im heading back into the water with a fresh mindset and a team of new partners who support me 100%. Thank you to everyone who enjoys watching me race, and to all those who have always been thereeven through the tough times.Next stop Guadalupe!BEN PROFFITTOur favourite PWA commentator and Windsurfing TV frontman Ben Proffitt has some news that doesnt involve fins or foot straps! Ben and his partner, Vilma just welcomed their second child, baby Rubi to the clan! Big congratulations to the growing Proffitt family (two daughters, two dogs and a windsurfing TV empireBen is going to have his work cut out managing all of that!).Ben wont be in Guadeloupe this time, but dont worry; hell on the microphone remotely from Portugal. So, while the rest of the crew is enjoying sundowners and spicy rum, Ben will be doing his commentary in between nappy changes. Now thats true dedication.The post WINDSURF NEWS BULLETIN! appeared first on Windsurf Magazine.
