In the water, Daniela Boldini<\/strong> from the Canary Islands and Bitor Garitaonandia<\/strong> from the Basque Country were the main protagonists at the start of the event, proclaiming themselves the winners of the Las Am\u00e9ricas Surf Pro Eurocup<\/strong>. The championship, which distributed \u20ac25,000 in prize money, also proclaimed the champions of the national surfing circuits; Luis D\u00edaz<\/strong>, from the Surfing.es League, and Luc\u00eda Machado<\/strong>, from the Iberdrola League.<\/p>\n

The Junior Las Americas Pro<\/strong><\/a> gave the riders the best wave conditions of the entire event. The main promises of national surfing showed their potential from start to finish in the Spanish Left. Alejo Valido<\/strong> was the main protagonist winning both categories; U16 and U18, and also proclaiming himself champion of the U16 Junior League Series. In the women’s category, Sol Borrelli<\/strong> won the U18 category and also sealed her national title in the U16 Junior Series League.<\/p>\n

Carla Morera de la Vall<\/strong> was the main protagonist among the youngest riders. At 13 years old, she reached the semi-finals of the Las Am\u00e9ricas Surf Pro Eurocup against the best national riders, retained her title as European U14 champion<\/strong>, won the U16 category<\/strong> and finished second in the U18 category.\u00a0 Without a doubt, Morera is one of the names to mark in red for the future of Spanish surfing.<\/p>\n

It wasn’t all about surfing. If the Spring Surfest Las Am\u00e9ricas Pro is characterised by anything, it is for being a cross-cutting event that combines culture, sport, gastronomy and environmental protection<\/strong>. During the festival, attendees could enjoy a wide range of concerts, with renowned bands such as Los Salvapantallas or DJ sessions by Papagayo Tenerife, Casa Corona Canarias and Venture Trend.<\/p>\n

Environmental actions were one of the focal points of the festival on a social level. With the support of the Formation and Youth Department of the Cabildo de Tenerife, two beach clean-ups and a seabed clean-up<\/strong> were carried out at Las Palmeras Beach, where the event is held. In a radius of action of approximately one kilometre, more than 4,000 cigarette butts<\/strong>, a multitude of food and sweets containers, plastic bags, fragments of glass, plastic and polyesterene, beverage caps, straws and cutlery, among other debris, were collected.<\/p>\n
