HENRIQUE FRAZÃO / ENGLISH LIGHT VERSION

PORTUGUESE KAYAKSURF IC CHAMPION 2011

Henrique Frazão is, above all, a sport lover. Professor at the School of Sport of Rio Maior (Portugal), sees physical activity as a natural extension of their human condition. Whether mountain climbing, surfing, river kayaking, kite surfing, windsurfing, canyoning, mountain biking or kayaking, what matters is exercising the mind and body. Three years ago, bought a surfkayak IC (the category with more than three meters) in World Kayaksurf held in Portugal in the Ocean Spirit Festival. Soon he got the waves of Foz do Arelho and Peniche (where he normally surfs), and last year, risked his participation in the National Circuit of Kayaksurf and Waveski (CNKW).

After two "second places" on the Foz do Arelho and the Ocean Spirit contests, he consolidated its delivery to the final victory in luxury in Figueira da Foz. But his participation in CNKW goes far beyond the competitive edge. Henrique organized the Foz do Arelho contest in 2011 that ventured to say, was one of the best events ever of the portuguese circuit. The event was a unique organization to the point of having "live streaming" and other particularities which reveal an excellent team work. However, his work on behalf of the sport also makes itself felt in the educational aspect because all his students experience the surfkayaking as an area of study.

As proof of this dynamic workforce, Henrique Frazão is also part of the Kayaksurf & Waveski Work Team recently created within the Portuguese Canoe Federation. It was this core that, among other activities, outlined the regulationfor the national trials of waveski and surfkayak. In short, whether he won the CNKW11 in category IC, this athlete from the Nautical Club of Foz do Arelho have deserved an interview for the work that has developed.
