It was a historic 2015 for Costa Rican surfers, who won an ISA World Championship and finished a national-best eighth at the ultra-competitive Junior World Championships.
For the 10th consecutive year, Costa Rica has captured the Central American surfing title. Jason Torres and Leilani McGonagle won respective titles in the men's and women's categories.
While his surfing has always been outstanding -- a mixture of power and aerials — Jason Torres has had to learn and accept an important lesson among professional competitors: It takes a certain mindset to be a winner.
Many of the world’s champion surfers were on hand in Nosara this past weekend to compete at the COPA Nosara Beach Club date of the Circuito Nacional de Surf kolbi 2015, and as expected the final with three of them proved to be as exciting as any heat so far this year.
Costa Rica will be represented by a lineup including international superstar Carlos Muñoz from Esterillos, Latin American champion Anthony Fillingim from Santa Teresa, and four-time world medalist Leilani McGonagle from Pavones.
