After a long waiting period of 15 years, fortunately the site of Brazilian stage of World Circuit of Surfing arrived to Itaúna Beach, Saquarema, 90 km from Rio de Janeiro.
Itaúana Beach has a "gringa"(foreign) wave as the guys said...
Since a long time ago I watched on TV and read the Surfing magazines that Saquarema was the "Maracanã" of Surfing, as they call. But this time I had the opportunity to see with my eyes.
The swell arrived at right time as everybody was waiting for. I could work: to film and take photos from the nicest event, in therms of level of competition, that I have already been in this ten years of WCT -World Championship Tour, now CT. Big and heavy waves, with good formation, strenght, that break to the left. The surfers -top athletes - also showed why they are in the elite of surfing.
So thank you "Saquarema", and the nice people that treated me very well.
See you next year..
Surf "the most beautiful sport".
