TOTORA / First "surfkayaks" in Peru ;)

TOTORA / Como os peruanos criaram os primeiros "surfkayaks"...



Ainda há poucos dias tínhamos publicado algumas fotos com Nathan Eades a surfar no Perú - onde ainda se encontra. Aliás, a história do Perú está associada a uma das "teses" sobre o aparecimento do kayaksurf. Tudo se passou algures em Huanchaco com os primeiros TOTORA... não sabe o que são? Veja o vídeo... muito bom!

Nathan Eades - NEWS TEAM kayaksurf.net - is still in Peru and a few days ago we published some photos of our welsh friend in Chicama. He is preparing great footage about Peru and the borning of kayaksurf. Why? All started with the Totoras. Originally used by fishermen, th Totora original surfboards are a versatile tool to navigate the waters of Peru. Sofia Mulanovich together with world-class surfer Sally Fitzgobbons and junior Nadja de Col exchanged their boards for the ancient type to test the surfing quality of these Peruvian boats that have thousands of years of history. Check the video!
