We had a brief conversation with Yeray Martinez about Sharkisland and the island contest just before he left to compete in the chile world tour event. Yeray reached the semi-finals at the sic event and placed 7th overall. Even though it was his first time competing there, he was considered one of the standouts of the event.What do you think about sharkisland?Sharkisland is a impredictable spot, because all waves are different. It's also very technical and powerfull. Overall it's a special wave for bodyboarding.
What do you think about the Australian level?Right now it's the best in the world, they have a very refined style and they surf big and powerfull waves very well .
Is it possible for a European to win at sharkisland?Well offcourse! The only thing is that in order to win such a event you have to be acostumed to surf powerfull waves and know the spot very well.
Thanks Yeray!
