Spartan Warriors

Here's a couple of snaps of Mikey Clancy (shot by his Dad - MC) from our super-fun weekend session on the beautiful west coast of Ireland.

Mikey, Oisin, myself and a few others hit Belmullet and enjoyed a nice little reefbreak wave and a sweet beachie right next to it - you could ride both waves on the same run back in.

Thanks to Cormac (below - on the reef) from Coláiste UISCE center for sharing his waves with us.

MC Senior even took one of me when the sun came out. Thanks Mr C!

You can see more great shots of Mikey in a slideshow at his website and Blog.

Slammin' at Mexicos.

WIND magazine 335 is out now!

May's issues features the low-down on a winter's development with Cyril Moussilmani and the 2010 Starboard iSonic Slalom boards, plus, Fabrice Beaux reveals his discoveries from a 9-month exploration in Indonesia.

There's also an extensive investigation into Quad fins after some solid testing and quizzing of top riders and shapers on Maui.

More talk from Gollito about the possibility of the PWA swoopin' into El Yaque in May...although some say that event might be scheduled for the end of the year..let's wait and see.

I promised you that The Hustle Project would be back - and it is - bigtime!

This week you can win some sweet Lycras/Rash Vests from generous, quality British wetsuit brand Spartan  - who are also offering a Wetsuit to the winner of the 'Grand Finale'  quiz this Friday.

If you want dedicated windsurfing wetsuits, tough enough and warm enough to survive a British winter, (or even a British 'Summer'!), then look no further.

So to kick things off today, for a Rashie, please answer this question and say why you want a Spartan Rash Vest so much.

Q1 In what year did Spartan first start making wetsuits?

Please leave your answers in the Comments section below and mail your answers to me. Thanks.

1958.

I'd like a Spartan Rashie because, like wetting yourself in public, everybody can see it, but only you can feel the inner warmth. That, and I need to get a new one!

Genius Stoofer - reminds me of that saying...'there are two types of people in this world...those that pee in their wetsuits, and those that say they don't...'

Anyway, I hope you only wet yourself [knowlingly and with full control of your bodily functions] in public when in a wetsuit?
