Praia Grande beach

The race includes overnight stay on an uninhabited island, visiting ever-green mountains and canyons of Santo Antão island and long passage to São Nicolau island; this is the type of race where your performance depends on such traits as reliability, solidarity and teamwork capacity - such an event can leave the brightest memories of Your life.   Comfort should be for a while swapped for hazards and hard labor though.  But the purpose remains the same - to cover the route still uncovered. Or others may come…

We invite both water craft pros and beginners, who might have seen PWCs at a distance.  Your leisure will be mostly dedicated to trainings and practicing tricks for the forthcoming race straight at the stormy bay of the Praia Grande beach. Beginners should master the basic techniques of jumps and u-turns, learn to work as team on speedy route and prove their physical readiness for the race. While expecting the race storm experienced sportsmen may enjoy bay waves and anticipation of challenging the elements. 

The safety is ensured by mandatory ten-day trainings with instructors, availability of 300 brand-new Japanese PWCs as well as additional rescue facilities such as helicopter and motor-boat.

The feeling of control over the wave, ability to outrun or even ride it, ability to struggle out of the dangerous stadium-sized thing, skills in jumps and tricks that can be learnt within several days, the feeling of fighting and finally subduing the elements - such emotions are beyond anything in the world.

See you at the dark side of the Praia Grande beach!
