Follow Austrian pro windsurfer Marco Lang and reigning IFCA Slalom windsurfing World Champion Gonzalo Costa Hoevel on an epic 9000km road trip through Gonzalo’s home country – Argentina, the eight biggest country on our planet! It’s a beautiful film about free racing in the inland of Argentina, which inspires to get your gear packed and travel to a country you’ve never sailed before.
The movie shows how beautiful windsurfing on a lake can be. Marco and Gonzalo sailed at the following lakes: Cuesta del Viento, Lago Nahuel Huapi at Bariloche and Lago Argentino in front of the Perito Moreno glacier. A bit of Che Guevara feeling, traveling across a huge country.
“When thinking about windsurfing in South America, the first places that come to your mind are the famous Brazilian hotspots like Jericoacoara or Icarazino. But there are so many other places to discover in this part of the huge continent. On our three week trip, we found some unique windsurfing spots in the middle of the Argentinian desert, on lakes close to the Andes Mountains and in front of some of the biggest Southamerican glaciers.” (Stefan Csáky, Director of Heading South)

Interview with the brain of the project Stefan Csàky
Gonzalo, Thanks so much for te video. You are a great ambassador for our sport, and also for Argentina. For those that have not visited Argentina, you should do it at least once in your life. For those that do not know how to windsurf, you should learn how to do it, and you will do it for life. Or maybe you can try to do both, like Gonzalo. The video is great because it reflects the best of our sport. It’s not just the feeling and emotions of blasting on a board in the wind. It’s adventure. It’s discovery.… Read more »
