World champions visit Cabo to play and to improve their game. Their sports range from mountain biking and kiteboarding, to the world’s largest sport fishing competition. Therefore, Nick Fong, the founder and broker of Ronival Real Estate loves to interview each of them during The Nick Fong PODCAST in Cabo.
In each of the following three PODCAST interviews, they reveal just how exciting the activities in Los Cabos really are. And, Nick learns some awesome details about the lives of four champions, each in their own outdoor sport. As such, read on to discover who they are and what they’ve achieved.
Lorena Dromundo’s Downhill mountain biking
Starting when Lorena was only 11 years of age, she started competing on horses. As she explains, she both jumped horses and raced horses. Obviously, she’s naturally quite competitive. After horses, she realized how much she loved bikes. So very quickly, she discovered downhill mountain biking and the rest was history.
For a long time, Nick’s guest was the only girl to be part of the downhill mountain biking community. Then, ever since 2013, she has held the title of women’s national champion. Her name is Lorena Dromundo and she’s from Ajusco, a town in Mexico City located on the southern side.
The famous Bisbee’s fishing tournaments
When the Bisbee family first arrived, they started with a mooring business in Cabo. There wasn’t a marina back then, so they helped make that happen. Being their 41st year in business in Cabo, Wayne tells Nick the whole story in a condensed version. What a history indeed!
Every year from July through October, Bisbee’s hosts three famous Cabo fishing tournaments. And each one escalates from one to the next. In July, the East Cape Offshore tournament is the first of two warm-up competitions before the big Los Cabos fishing tournament in late October. Then, the second is called Los Cabos Offshore. It takes place just days before the big multi-million-dollar tournament – Bisbee’s Black and Blue.
First: East Cape Offshore Tournament
Being “Los Cabos fishing as it used to be,” the East Cape Offshore Tournament is truly amazing. In addition to marlin, this competion includes dorado and tuna. The Bisbee’s Los Cabos fishing tournament expanded to the east side of Baja California Sur back in 2000, to host the East Cape Offshore in the small town of Buenavista.
Second: Los Cabos Offshore Tournament
Created back in 2002, Cabos Offshore is nick-named the “Little Bisbee’s.” As such, it’s more of a social event full of camaraderie, where old fishing buddies reunite, share stories and spend a few days warming up before that final event, the big daddy of the them all…Bisbee’s Black and Blue…five days of the most thrilling sports fishing in the world
Third: Black and Blue Tournament
Now for the biggest and final event: the Black and Blue Tournament. It takes place at the end of October, this is the last Los Cabos fishing tournament of the series and is the most prestigious of the them all.
The Black and Blue Tournament offers the highest winnings of any sports-fishing tournament in the world. And, it attracts some of the best boats with some of the biggest names in fishing. These fishermen have very deep wallets and usually enroll in all tournament options across the board, often paying $60,000 or more in entry fees and calcuttas (daily jackpots).
