The 2009 Cabo Verde PWA Wave contest ended with a great victory for MauiSails' rider, Josh Angulo. Always one of the top events with a who's who list of competitors, this year's duel at Ponta Preta was no exception for standout conditions and high drama. In order to seal his win, Josh had to defeat last year's winner, Kauli Seadi, twice. Using 2009 Legend 5.3 and 5.7, Josh made best use of his local break and sailed with skill and determination to seal the decision.


Josh said, "Cabo Verde 2009 was another dream come true. The organization that went into the event was  more extensive than ever. There was a sentiment on the island, in the country, and worldwide that something really special was going on. For me it was an honor to have my years of sailing at Ponta Preta appreciated by my peers and the worldwide windsurf community, and to receive the highest position in an event of this stature surely is humbling and motivating. There action of the last week was extraordinary and I look forward to riding the momentum into the next events as well as seeing the continued growth here in Cabo Verde."
