Retirement: Interview with Daida Moreno - The Queen of Pozo steps down
They are still closely connected today, but they are independent, strong women with different fates. Now Daida is saying goodbye to the World Cup. Lina Erpenstein met the Queen of Pozo for an exceptionally frank interview.
Only very few athletes are given the honour of having a statue dedicated to them during their active career. The twins Daida and Iballa Ruano Moreno have done it: on the promenade of their home spot Pozo Izquierdo sits a huge metal surfboard with the sail numbers E-63 for Iballa, E-64 for Daida and the E-11 of another not entirely unknown windsurfer from Gran Canaria cut out of the steel. (Dunkerbeck used the sail number E-11, with which he competed for Spain).
The Moreno twins - Daida and Iballa marketed themselves under this brand name for more than two decades - have 28 PWA world championship titles between them. There are no more successful twins in the sporting world. Daida Moreno can also rightly be celebrated as the "Queen of Pozo", having won her home World Cup 22 times. 2023 will be her last success, she says. After her victory this year, the 45-year-old exceptional athlete announced her retirement from professional sport. Shortly afterwards, she gave Lina

| • Iballa Ruano Moreno (Starboard / Severne) performed brilliantly over the course of the season as she won every event this year to be crowned the deserved 2012 PWA Wave World Champion. This was Iballa’s first world title since 2007, and on the way to victory she truly raised the bar for women’s sailing. First of all the newly crowned champion pulled an amazing frontside wave 360 at the opening event of the year in Pozo to become the first woman in thirteen years to defeat her sister, Daida Ruano Moreno (Starboard / Severne) on their home waters. Iballa then continued to push the level even higher in Tenerife as she became the first woman ever to land a goiter on the wave in a heat. By this point Iballa was in control of the title race and at the final event of the year, Sylt, she made no mistakes to ensure that she finished the season in that prestigious first place. After a week or two’s break to recover the PWA caught up with Iballa to see what it is like to be the PWA Wave World Champion again and more. PWA: Iballa, congratulations on your 2012 PWA Wave World Title. How does it feel to win a fifth world crown and your first since 2007? Iballa: “I’m happy to be there always on the top with my sister. It’s not easy to keep up the level and keep improving every year. I |
