Bio/Info
Name: Stephen Gibson
Birthday: 11th March 1970
Country: UK / Fuerteventura
Favourite discipline: Waves/ Freestyle
Favourite spots: Punta Blanca in Fuerte and Tiree- legendary!
Favourite Fanatic board: One day the 86 Twin then the next day my 100 Skate, can´t decide as they´re both awesome!
Favourite manouevre: Pushloop, Ponch, Taka and Flaka (not simultaneously unfortunately).
How I started windsurfing: My dad was a pioneer in the scene in the north of England and threw me onto a dufour wing in 1981, kitted out in the latest white gym slip-ons and bright red buoyancy aid, and that was me hooked!
Best windsurfing day: Far too many to mention, emotionally probably the last day of the canarian qualifiers for the PWA event in Sotavento, where I won every heat in all four rounds without putting a foot wrong, going from last place after day one (I had to leave early to get back to work!) to overall winner, qualifying for the World Cup Freestyle Event- crackin´party after that one...
Other sponsors: North Sails, ION, PuraVidaBoardriders
My goals: To carry on enjoying this sport I love as long as humanly possible...oh, and win the lottery.
Slogan: Push hard, but always with a smile on yer face!
