Trials at Santander: Hobie Tiger & H16
I contacted one class official and a company man, of course my position on the 16 didn´t suit them, so here it is their space as the rest. The H16 on the Olympics is the only beachcat project I ever mentioned against or not supported. So I can understand them and I’m sorry, but they are quite big to be preocupied by a blog from Arg.These guys invented what we have today.And no other than a Surfer, Hobie Alter, was behind it.

I started catsailing and racing because of the Hobie ‘appeal’ , being a surfer, windsurfer,wakeboarder and else it was what I was missing. The Hobie 16 Class in Mexico was exactly what a begginers need, all supporting you and teaching and all good vibes, I got hooked.
Then just when returning to Arg, I saw the Tiger… and well that is the reason later I left an excellent position and future in the IT bussines for the F18 project.
That is the way Hobie can affect your life…
Below the Noriega bros from México, the entire family along the Murrieta and Ponce gave my wife and I the best times possible in and outside the water ever.
The Hobie Tiger and the Hobie 16 are the options presented at Santander, and I think the Tiger can be a Salomonical decision and the F18 in Brazil will just explode with benefits for all brands as they can start selling their F18s in the land of cool, Brazilians are just easy, happy and cool people and of course they are quite good at any sport, in sailing just naming Grael and Scheidt, there is not much to add.
