The boards of San Andrés and the pots and pans ran again yesterday, after the one-year stoppage caused by the pandemic, through the steep streets of Icod de los Vinos and La Guancha. A tradition that these municipalities have celebrated all their lives, which brings together thousands of people each year and that the pandemic forced to suspend last year.

However, in 2021 it has been wanted, at least, to recover the tradition, although still without an audience, which has had to settle for seeing the tables on social networks. In Icod, the youngest were the protagonists, who, on El Plano street, made long queues to agree to crawl down the road, because, like the rest, it had capacity control.

Mayor Francis González, who also went down the street a few times, as he himself told Mírame Televisión, apologized to the neighbors for the current COVID restrictions, such as the ban on placing kiosks or the aforementioned capacity. “I am very sorry that we have to do it like this, but this year the important thing was to recover the tradition and for the boards to crawl again. Neighbors can follow him through the Facebook of the City Council ”, he said.

Dozens of young people, and not so young, spent hours yesterday, until late at night, sliding with their boards through the main and steepest streets of the City of Drago, such as the aforementioned El Plano, Los Franceses, San Sebastián and El Sol, in Icod de los Vinos. All had limited capacity, social distancing (impossible) and mandatory use of a mask, the latter requirement that was the most breached in view of the participants who were thrown down the street.

There was a desire to crawl, and they showed it in Icod, where the young people began to throw themselves, and never better said, at three in the afternoon, on their wooden boards, which reached a great speed and ended up crashing against a large number of strategically placed tires for braking. The emergency services had to attend to some blows, especially late at night, when a greater number of participants gathered. For their part, the residents of La Guancha took it a little more calmly, mainly because they started the celebration on the weekend. From Saturday they began to shoot through the streets. With the wine and tapas fair on Saturday, and the farmer’s market on Sunday, as the City Council told DIARIO DE AVISOS, the economy of the area began to move, with which merchants and winemakers are satisfied. Today, the feast of San Andrés, both municipalities hold the celebration.
