Fernando stalla bronze medal in career long in the World Games 2013 Peru sup.

fernando1Fernando Stalla makes history by being third in the race Marathon of the World SUP and Paddleboard Championship in Peru, and win the first bronze medal for Mexico in these games. No doubt greater expectations were with him, in extremely difficult conditions, with fog and a little difference of seconds separated the first four places in the competition. Very exciting career in its final minutes, see them go fog when they turned to the buoy and went towards the beach, "Vamos Mexico!", said. "!!!" His teammate, Javier Jiménez, did another good job left in the seventh position.

The President of the ISA, Fernando Aguerre, said: "athletes faced difficult conditions and with a dense fog, but fought against this and gave a great show. The champions of last year fought hard to defend their titles, but it is equally impressive to see new faces emerging in surf and Board racing. This demonstrates how the sport has developed in a short time, partially as a result of the SUP Championship and last year ISA Paddleboard".
