Antoine Auriol, the portrait !

Antoine is an excellent rider from Brittany living in Sapin, for both, kite and studies! This year, he showed up on the KPWT and the results are successfulâ€¦
Express Interview :

Where are your from ?

Â« I am from St Brieuc in the CÃ´tes Dâ€™Armor (Brittany) where I started the kitesurf with friends. I am now living in Spain, at Puerto de Santa Maria, near by CÃ¡diz.

A great part of the year i am in Italy where i prepare my Sport Master of Management. Â»

CÃ¡diz is a good spot ?

Â« CÃ¡diz is a great spot. This is a huge bay, with many spots, with all wind directions. On wintertime there are many waves, the temperature is correct, around 18-20Â°.

There are 2 dominant winds : the Poniente, West, blowing regularly and the very famous levante, East wind that can blow up to 50 knotsâ€¦ but the bay of CÃ¡dix provides many bends en case the wind would be too strong !

Concerning daily life, people are very nice, warmâ€¦ The climate is influencing because it is difficult to be in a bad mood when you wake up every morning with a deep blue sky. The rhythm of the Spanish life is nice and at any time of the day, streets are crowded with a vibrating life! For whom is tight concerning the purse, Cadix is also a good living and life is cheap : the tapas bar can feed you for almost nothingâ€¦ Â»

Your sportif scores :

2005: KPWT overall; 3^rd Waves Master ; 3^rd Bet and Win.

2004 : 10^th KPWT

2003 : Olympic Europe Windsurf Champion, junior category.
