“Tenerife became my 2nd home throughout the last 7-8 years because I came here for training in the winter. The island life here is good. It’s windy, wavy, with great food and people. The island can offer so much with its nature. Mountain biking, hiking, anything! A normal day would be waking up at 7.30 am. Eat breakfast, check the forecast, get a message from Robin who tells us the training schedule of the day. Prepare lunch and a second breakfast. Go to the beach, check the conditions. Visit my SurfHub center. Rig up and get the iSonic and Foil Slalom boards ready. And then everything is good to go for a day on the water. Normally we do 3 sessions of 5 starts each. One session is around 1 hour and 15 minutes. In-between the sessions we have some time to eat. After the training, I pack up my gear, go home and rest. We either stay home or meet up for a beer with the other riders.” Matteo Iachino
