Master of the Ocean 2008

11 03 2008

Master of the Ocean was created in 2003 to select the world’s best overall water sport athlete. Competitors have to compete in all 3 disciplines:
surfing, windsurfing as well as kiteboarding.
This world class wave triathlon takes place in Cabarete (Dominican Republic) where a wide variety of wind and waves spots enable this kind of competition.
Without any equivalent in water sports, competitors have to master each discipline (Surf, Kitesurf and Windsurf) as each sport has the same weight in overall ranking.
