Rise of the Egomaniac...

Strange few weeks, there has been good surf and pretty good wind but i just seem to either miss it with work or not really get on it when its there.. Not sure whats going on with the sailing but i just havent been feeling it. I think it might have been something to do with a day at the races on a stag with a bus full of social hand grenades where i seem to have sacrificed my brain. Alf has had his magic camera out working on a project so that made me link a few things together but something wasnt right. One week latter and she seems to have rebooted abit and I'm starting to feel the fire again.


Water wise a couple of things have stood out.

No Limitz Masts. Im not one for yelling 'this the best bit of kit ever' but I was put onto these by Jim at Puravida after a heavy few sessions that were hammering my bank account. I know i have some affiliation with these carbon pole manufactures but i  tell you. These new Sumo series are something else. I swear down i bent one of those things in half last week on a slight miss timing on a rather hefty lump. I dont know what they are doing with these modern masts but they are pretty special.

Sumo convert.

Steve Stubbs on his kite has been on fire. Full rail gauges knocking waves flat. Hats off to you Stubbs, taking the kites to the next level there sir. Even made me think of getting the old strings out again. Another man who is on the charge is Gareth Mogsy Morgan. He can lay down the power on tap. One of the most committed water men down here.

Mogs on one.

To windsurf waves with style is a hard thing to do Angulo brothers Levi, Kauli and Pat Redman are a few that stand out to me. Campello can do it all but he looks ugly with it. Alfie Hart is a man you associate being the land side of the camera however put him in good conditions and the man can ride with effortless style. At  Newgale he was pretty faultless last week. BWA Ams title this year?

Alf at work.

Steve North is also back on the radar. All over it mate. Check him out. http://pembswindsurfing.blogspot.co.uk/
