Puneta

Here is a video of me doing my first Puneta at our recent trip to El Tur

El Tur

Recently myself and some of the other guys that have been working for Neilson this year were offered an amazing trip to El Tur with the Getwindsurfing crew (Phil and Danielle) and the guys at Moses Bay Hotel. We decided to head over on the Tuesday night with the promise of some great conditions on the Wednesday. Thankfully the conditions did arrive but it did start off a bit light which was annoying at first.

Towards the end of the day I was fully stacked on my 4.5, having an amazing time in switch and going for Burners and anything else, the only down fall to the trip was that I snapped my boom in the afternoon which ended my session early.

A huge thanks to Phil and Danielle from Getwindsurfing and the all the people at Moses Bay Hotel especially Mr Dear who looked after us very well

Tow-In

Over the past few days and with the no wind here at the moment,  I have had the opportunity to give tow in windsurfing ago for the first time. Way harder than what people have been making out to me!!! I don't think the chop from all the wakeboard boats helped but once you get it up and going you can have some sort of control, which is nice.

Phil and Danielle at Getwindsurfing were able to get some photos of us all giving it ago, plenty of crashes but some nice moves landed as well.

New Kit

Rodeo 98

Recently I have taken purchase of my 2012 kit from Simmer and F2. I have gone for a quiver of Simmer Blacktips in 4.2, 4.5, 4.7 and 5.0 and then the 98 Rodeo from F2. Now that I am back in Dahab I am hoping to get out on it as often as I can and see what it is like to ride.

Blacktip 4.7 and 5.0 the same
