Another video of wavesailing in Chile with Fanatic Team Riders Klaas Voget and 08 PWA Tour runner-up Victor Fernandez.
Doh! Hope that mends soon Matt.
Here's a movie made in South Africa by Czech PWA rider Tom Malina.
Tom said "Sorry about the interviews in Czech language but that was part of the deal with the sponsors."
The PWA's negotiated a special offer on insurance for pro windsurfers. You can find out more via info(at)pwaworldtour.com or see more at www.sportsinsurance.com
Coaching guru Jem Hall's posted a trailer to his soon-to-be-released 'Winner to Wavesailor' DVD. (See list on right-hand side of page.)
Have a look at this vintage footage from Ho'okipa of Dave Ezzy and many other 'back in the day'. Classic.
I thought it was interesting in this interview that Kauli Sead doesn't think that the judges are 'ready' for the sailing style his Quad fins might lead to.
What do you think about the surfing style vs. traditional windsurfing style? Is a surfing line for surfing and windsurfing a different turning approach?
Why should windsurfing always copy surfing? Maybe surfers should take a more aggressive line by watching Angulo or Polakow on a wave at Ponta Preta? Please leave any comments below. Thanks.
Also, if you haven't voted in the new PWA World Tour Webcast Poll I'd be grateful for your views.
Matt Pritchard 'broke a leg', seriously!
