Ultimate Advanced Boost

For this clinic, I am running 2 x 4 day clinics at both Icarai and Jeri, Brazil. If you wish to enhance your stance, gybes, transitions, freestyle and all-round wavesailing skills at these great venues then please book early, as these will fill quickly.

The action

Stance – plane early, sail faster and fly upwind

Carve gybes – from improving to fully planing

Tacking – nailing this useful and fundamental skill

Freestyle – introduction and improvement in lots of new and useful tricks

Waves – get out, get in, wave selection and riding, composed airtime

Jem will be coaching through use of simulators, on-water coaching and video coaching. Please feel free to give me feedback on how it is going for YOU at any time so he can give you the best opportunity to develop.

Your windsurfing ability

To get the best out of this clinic participants will need to be sailing sub-100L boards in strong winds and open seas and be making some of your gybes competently!

Accommodation

A variety of fantastic accommodation with most people staying at the newly finished Casa do John (CDJ) and Serrote Breezes apartments in Jeri, one of which is Jem and friends very own apartment. The accommodation in Icarai is the on site Pousada Les Alizes for B & B.

Windsurfing kit

Boards: JP, Starboard and now lighter Pro package boards are there!

Sails: Neil Pryde sails – Pro package of X6 lighter masts and booms!

The windsurfing

Wind: very very reliable trades, cross to cross off from the right, Force 4 – 6.

Water state: Jeri – Small easy going waves and pretty damn flat at low tide. Other sailing areas up and downwind. Seriously warm water with a more punchy cross on break upwind and a side off break downwind at the dunes fro mid to high tide.

Water state: Icarai – easier going flat water inside and wave break out the back and upwind. Very flat and amazing lagoon at low tide. Generally easier sailing than Jeri with slightly less wind and flatter water so best suited as a warm up for Jeri or for more Intermediate sailors .

The combo of reliable strong wind, combo of water states and easy waves make these places ideal to up your level and improve your wavesailing, freestyle and looping! Progression and a huge amount of sailing time are as near as guaranteed.

The social

The social will revolve around us meeting up for some well-earned pre-dinner drinks and then having dinner together in one of the fine and varied local restaurants. Sundowners at the Club Dos Ventos are stunning. It is all pretty relaxed and we have some great chat and share a good laugh at our daily stunts.

The travel

The flight is with Air Portugal and takes approx 12 hours with a stop over in Lisbon.

Other activities

A veritable smorgasbord of other activities including horse riding, surfing, SUPing and some fantastic local excursions.
