                    [Summary] => For many of us this time of year is a time for shopping, spending time with friends, and enjoying the Christmas break as the weather cools and we put on our beloved sweaters and cardigans. But, for an few extreme sports lovers though, this time of year represents the Amihan season (Northeasterly wind season) that translates into epic waves and ideal boarding conditions. And just who are these wind-loving thrill seekers? They’re the Philippines’ top group of windsurfers!
