Blanca’s daily routines
Blanca was preparing for the moment to step on the highest place on the PWA podium the whole winter. Hard training and many hours on the water paid off. She spent a lot of time in Tenerife training on the fin and the foil. Her big advantage was the smooth handling of the foil in high winds and choppy conditions. She will tell us more about what her winter looked like in the video.
