Nat’l Windsurfing Association to hold more regattas in Dagupan
BALON DAGUPAN NEWS
DAGUPAN CITY – After the success of the Windsurfing Cup held in Tondaligan Blue Beach from April 13 to 15, 2018, the Philippine Windsurfing Association (PWA) has already made plans to hold more windsurfing events in the city in the following years.
This was bared by PWA Secretary General Paolo Morato in an exclusive interview with the City Information Office.
“We are going to do this again next year, and every year after that. The Dagupan windsurfing regatta is a priority for the PWA,” Morato said. “Aside from the national team races, we are thinking of doing a slalom race where we will invite pro riders not just from the Philippines, but also in Southeast Asia.”
This is the second year of the PWA in Dagupan. The association previously came to Dagupan City last May 27 to 29, 2017 to conduct a free training.
Morato mentioned that the eagerness of Dagupeños, the support of the government, and the features of the beach were the reasons for the PWA’s future comebacks.
“The support of Mayor Belen is unbelievable. She doesn’t just talk. She actually does it,” Morato shared. “The beach is perfect for windsurfing. You got good wind, you got a nice beach, and it’s wide. Perfect for races.”
