Anyone windsurfed in Colombia?

[asharfi]

Hi all. I'm going to Cartagena, Colombia over Xmas. Has anyone ever windsurfed down there? Wondering if the conditions are good and if I'll be able to rent decent equipment. Any input would be appreciated!!!

Hi Asharfi,
should be good around Cartagena and Barranqilla and on some islands.
A collegue of, Michi Rossmeier, often joined Columbia as the winter trainings destination and a slalom worldcup was once on the list in 2007, I guess.
Overthere it´s windy around christmas.
link of kitespots, which could work for windsurfing as well: http://www.kitebeaches.com/country/Colombia.html

all the best,
Chris
