Jim Brooks of Pura Vida Boardriders has just let us know how it’s going with our premium British export out on Fuerte…

Corky Kirkham has been back at it ripping the waves up in Fuerte with the recent Wave Classic and a few other Canarian events, not to mention his explosive freesailing that’s certainly seen him back to his best! Things on the island of Fuerteventura have been quiet for the last year or so with the economic downturn, but Corky says “It’s back on and better than ever!” He’s opened a new bar just off the main street in the centre of town ready for the summer winds, and just signed with Spartan Wetsuits. Corky is now into his 2nd year riding for Pura Vida Boardriders on the new Fanatic Twin 93 and North Egos. For more info on their clinic trips to Fuerte check www.puravidaboardriders.co.uk
