Zap Pro/Am World Championships of Skimboarding 2019
We are just under 2 weeks away from the 2019 Zap Pro/Am World Championships of Skimboarding. You won't find a more stacked lineup of skimboarders from around the world competing in Dewey Beach, DE. All of the top Zap riders will be there including Bruno Sa from Brazil, Gerardo Valencia from Mexico, and Yahir Valenica from Mexico. This will be the first time Bruno and Yahir will compete in the United States. Among the International riders, Zack Carter who has won 3 stops on the Skim USA tour will be competing so there will be plenty of fireworks going down!
Right at Home in Mainland Mexico- Episode 2
This episode takes us on a journey through the absolute heart of what the Valencia brothers call home. Panga boats are the transportation through Barra De Navidad, they're like mainland Mexico taxicabs, so we hopped on one and started our day with a hike and adventure over to Coco's for a little swim and chill sesh. We ended up hanging at the Valencia's house that evening and Yahir and Gerardo absoutely scored an insane skim session, literally in their back yard. The following day Gerardo took us to the city of Cihuatlan for the Dia de la Virgin de Guadalupe. This is possibly the largest celebration of Mexican culture held every year and Gerardo was so stoked to share it with us. He's never missed one, ever, and we were there to share this one with him. It was a truly special experience. We wrap up with a classic sunset skim session in Melaque with John and Gerardo. What an opportunity it was to be able to share the waves with the Melaque locals. Their stoke is so pure and the passion for skimming there is incredible.
