BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS — He was president for 8 years, now he’s just having fun.
Barack Obama wasted no time letting loose as soon as his tenure as president ended. Sir Richard Branson, of the Virgin brand, invited the now-former president to have some fun in the British Virgin Islands.
The duo was photographed kitesurfing and foilboarding.
“So it was tremendous to offer him the chance to learn to kitesurf,” Branson said. “The sport has really taken off in the past decade and we have the perfect conditions and team to help anyone learn. I have also wanted to learn foilboard surfing. So we decided to set up a friendly challenge: could Barack learn to kitesurf before I learned to foilboard? We agreed to have a final day battle to see who could stay up the longest.”
