Most recently, she competed in the World Paralympic Canoe Championships in Hungary, where she aimed to secure a place in the Paris Paralympic Games but narrowly missed out on the required first or second place finish in the final.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past few months, despite facing some health challenges, \u00darsula has dedicated herself exclusively to paracanoe training and preparation.<\/p>\n<p>Her relentless resilience and determination have continued to bring her success. One of her latest achievements took place in November, when she finished fourth in the World Parasurfing Championship in Huntington Beach, California \u2013 an impressive debut in the Stand Up category. Prior to that, she dominated three challenges in the Spanish Parasurfing Cup, becoming the overall champion in her category at Playa de Patos in Galicia, in the Vigo Ria esturary, home to Spain\u2019s most prestigious Adaptive Surfing Championship.<\/p>\n<p>Now back home and visiting SAMPOL, \u00darsula shared her next goals: competing in the Spanish Cup in Seville next week, followed by the European Championships on 13 June, both in canoeing. She remains fully committed to her three passions \u2013 skiing, canoeing and surfing \u2013 as she continues to compete at national, European and global levels.<\/p>\n<p>This sponsorship aligns with SAMPOL\u2019s social action strategy, which coordinates the company\u2019s efforts to maximise its impact on society.
