World Wave Tour

Catching up with Miguelito Chapuis. By popular demand! We asked on our socials during the Tenerife event who you wanted us to catch up with, and Miguelito’s name kept coming up. So here he is!

Miguelito had a bit of a late start to the season after a bad landing this winter left him with a Lisfranc injury that required surgery. That meant arriving in Pozo with barely any training and not really knowing how much he’d be able to push. But heat after heat, the foot was feeling good, the confidence was building and he just kept going bigger.

And then came THAT heat. With only seconds left and his place in the next round on the line, he pulled off a massive double forward and made it through. From there, he was on a roll, all the way to an incredible third place.

That gave him a pretty nice confidence boost going into Tenerife, where he made the quarterfinals and finished 13th overall. In a stacked heat with Takuma and Pons on fire, both Marcilio Browne and Miguelito were knocked out.

But we’re only halfway through the season, with three 5-stars behind us and another three 5-stars still to come. With that boost from his Pozo result and the level he’s showing right now, we’re very curious to see where he takes it from here.

His progression over the last couple of seasons has been crazy to watch, the level keeps going up, he’s not afraid to send it, and it really feels like Miguel is only getting started!

We’ll definitely be keeping an eye on him. Good luck for the rest of the season, Miguelito!

Catching up with Morgan Noireaux, the Hawaiian rider and multiple-time Aloha Classic World Cup champion, talking about his experience at the Tenerife World Cup.

Morgan is currently sitting 8th in the world windsurfing wave rankings, with three 5-star events still ahead. Two of them, Chile and Maui, are among his favorite stops on tour, and places where he’s already delivered some great results in the past. With plenty still to play for, there’s a real opportunity for Morgan to climb even higher in the rankings before the season is over.

Morgan is also one of the most exciting riders to watch, whether he’s competing or training at home in Maui. He’s always pushing hard, constantly getting creative on the water, and his consistency is seriously impressive. Add to that the countless hours he puts into training, and you know he’ll be ready for what’s coming next.

We can’t wait to see how the rest of the season unfolds for him. Good luck, Morgan!

Last year’s Wave Men Final brought some serious action to the Citorën Windsurf World Cup. Ready to see what Sylt has in store for us this year?🔥

Catching up with Daniel Dunkerbeck, the youngest of the family and already competing in the U15 World Cup. 🌊

With his dad, Björn, one of the biggest names in windsurfing history, and his brother Liam coming fresh from the World Cup finals in Pozo, Daniel is clearly following the same family passion for the sport, while already bringing plenty of his own style to the water.

Such a pleasure to watch him sail, with some awesome no-handed jumps and those beautiful, classic Table Tops. But even better is the character behind the sailing, always smiling, super friendly and clearly loving every minute on the water.

Wishing Daniel all the best, plenty of new tricks landed and, most importantly, lots of fun along the way!
