From www.Point-7.com: Pro Team rider Sean O’Brien traveled to the northern seaside city of Fortaleza in Brasil this week to compete at the final FW Grand-Prix World Tour event. Here, Sean shares some of his thoughts on his first experience traveling and windsurfing in Brasil.

Footage from the FW Grand-Prix event was shot by Claudio @ Morlima Films.

After an intense 5 days of racing at the 2010 Fortaleza Grand-Prix World Tour event in Brasil, I’ve finished with 11th place and in to the prizemoney. There was plenty of action through the week; rolling with the BRA-boys and eating at some incredible restaurants, partying at some incredible bars, and wandering through a favela. You can read all my reports and see my photos from event on the live-coverage page for this event: Fortaleza Grand-Prix Live-Coverage.

I’m here for another week with Kurosh Kiani to film some movies at some of northern Brasil’s finest beaches… watch this space…
