The Carve vs Futura – Which is right for you?

By Sam Ross

I often get asked by clients which board would be most suited to their type of sailing and what the differences are between the boards.

This got me thinking, how many people out there may also have the same question? To help provide an answer for everyone I have put together a short test video to give some insight into this.

Largest Windsurfer Ever

By George Shillito

They say cancer effects 1 in 4 people, and this year everywhere I turn I seem to be faced with sad stories from friends and family, so I have decided to do my bit!

With the help of my Team 15 (kids windsurfing club) the Polkerris Pirates we aim to get as many people windsurfing on one board as physically possible, each with their own sail. Our aim is to get 11 of us on one board all sailing at the same time!! Up till now there has been no official record set for this crazy stunt so who knows we may even set a world record whilst raising a heap of cash at the same time!

Check out the video below to see how we got on!

If you like the video and would like to make a donation to the charity then you can do so by visiting my just giving page: http://www.justgiving.com/george-surf every little helps so please give what you can.

Jamie Drummond Winter/Spring 2012

By Jamie Drummond

Video highlights of my winter spring training in preparation for the 2012 PWA freestyle tour events.

During the late winter and spring of 2012 I was able to get in some freezing sessions at home in the UK before travelling to Cape Town and Egypt for some warmer conditions.

In the process of taking 1st place at the Dahab Watersports Festival, I have injured my knee, which has meant that I had to miss the first PWA event of the year – the recovery is going well and I will be back on top form for Fuerteventura!

Thanks again to my sponsors who provide me with the gear and support to help me train in these great locations: 
Tushingham Sails
Starboard
Mystic
K4 Fins
