Carla Herrera
I was born in the Dominican Republic and we moved to Spain when I was very young. I lived in Toledo, far from se ocean for the first few years and luckily, I ended up in Conil (a small town in southern Spain coast) where my love for the sea began to emerge. Living so close to Tarifa, i started kitesurfing when I was 14 years old and the rest is history.
After 15 years of kitesurfing in which I have been able to reap great achievements, like becoming kitesurf world champion, I have decided to focus more on Wingfoil since it is the sport that motivates me the most today. The freedom combined with the feeling of starting a new sport is what keeps me motivated to hit the water every day.
