Windsurfers to compete in Boracay


BORACAY ISLAND, Philippines- Windsurfers from all over the world will gather here in December to compete in the inaugural "One World Championships."
Organizers said Monday that the event will be staged at Bulabog Beach in the central Philippine province of Aklan from December 10 to 15.
The Bulabog Beach is considered the mecca for windsurfing and kiteboarding in Asia and is regarded as a perfect venue for the event due to its water temperature in December.
Air temperature, meanwhile, is also suitable because of the northeasterly wind locally known as "amihan".
Every year, windsurfers and kitesurfers gather here for the world championships.
"The real advantage that Boracay has over other Asian destinations is the reliability of the north easterly wind. To organize major events, we need reliable conditions and this is what Boracay offers plus an exciting night life off the water," said Neil Pryde, one of the founders of the annual event.
Windsurfers may pre-register before November 12 and are encouraged by organizers to be in Boracay by December 8.
