MANOLO
One of the most famous coaches in Spain and certainly the address when it comes to Greenland paddling and rolling: The Galician sea kayaking legend Manolo Pastoriza – with more than 40 years in the kayak and over 30 years of coaching experience one of the most experienced instructors you can possibly find... Our paths crossed by chance in the summer of 2021 – since then Manolo has been working as a freelancer for MORYAK.
As far as paddling and especially his coaching approach is concerned, Manolo is neither a traditionalist nor one who blindly follows the mainstream and follows all fashions. Instead, the quiet Gallego with the albatross arms, who went to sea already as a young man, has developed his unique approach and style over decades of work, in which he combines the best of seemingly such different worlds as Greenland and racing kayaking into a unique whole that works under all conditions.
