CELEBRATING FREESTYLE WINDSURFING
This July 30, we celebrate freestyle windsurfing in collaboration with René Egli Fuerteventura and INNSiDE by Melia Fuerteventura with the exclusive release of the new 2023 Severne Psycho freestyle board.
During the daytime, we’ve arranged a Freestyle Expression Session Show with some of the top Severne riders, where guests of René Egli will be the judges of who performs the best move. The location will be the René Egli centre at the windy Playa de Sotavento, Fuerteventura.
In the evening, at 20.00, a freestyle celebration is arranged at the unique “Ginger Bar” at the INNSiDE by Melia Fuerteventura; here we are going to present the very new Psycho freestyle board along with all of the details of the new freestyle board range. We will also reveal the winners of the freestyle show, along with clips of the best moves performed throughout the day.
If you are around, come visit and celebrate freestyle windsurfing with us on this special day.
