The International Funboard Class Association is very pleased to return to Portugal Guincho for the World Championships Freewave 2004.
In 2000 the IFCA World Wave Championships where organised for the first time in Portugal. This was the first time that one of the international windsurf classes put there trust and a major event in the hands of Overpower. They did not let us down. It was perfect.
Of course this was no coincidence. The Club organized the 1st Overpower Regatta, in 1984, and since then established a record of very good organised events. Last years European Championship Formula Experience and the European Championships Formula Windsurfing in 2002 confirmed the capability of Overpower as one of the best organisers of very big windsurf events.
The new formula of Freewave, agreed by the IFCA Annual General Meeting and confirmed by the ISAF Windsurfing Comity will have its first big test in Guincho. The combination of a Wave and Freestyle World Championship in a one-discipline event reflects what has been happening in a lot of countries on national level.
Hope to see you, and your best tricks in Guincho.
Good winds,
Bruno De Wannemaeker
President International Funboard Class Association
