- Sarah Jackson, world No 2 in slalom, relocating to Tenerife
- ‘It’s not just unpleasant it’s actually health threatening’
One of the world’s leading windsurfers has quit the English south coast for Spain after describing training near her home like “surfing in a sewer”. Sarah Jackson has won two world championship silver medals and is ranked second in the world in her slalom discipline.
The 24-year-old has been forced to relocate, however, due to the conditions of the water at Hayling Island, a windsurfing hotspot in Hampshire.
