Maddalena Maria Spanu

ITA-75

I was born in Sardinia, I started windsurfing at 6, and international slalom at 12, but I wave it just for fun. When I was very young, my father always took me windsurfing with him, so he passed on his passion for this sport to me. I practice it in different spots on the west coast of Sardinia (torregrande, putzu idu, funtana meiga…) and then with my family we travel all over the world to compete or simply to have fun windsurfing. My island is very windy especially in summer, while in winter it gets a lot of waves. I also do wing racing and I like to practice skate and surf as a hobby.
