Check out this final video from the pistol river wave bash, as Kevin Pritchard and Fransico Goya Throw down!! See the action just like you were there!! You gotta wonder how Kevin competed and filmed at the same time :s, I think he owes props to his girlfriend on this one, Enjoy!
I’m back from the wave bash, which was awesome, and I’m already looking forward to next year. The first two days saw awesome winds, I headed out on my 4.7 and was very over powered in my first heat, and managed to score only 1 wave. The following day saw light winds in the morning and I struggled to make it out to the line up. But all in all the KA Kult sails performed awesome!
Some of the highlight where watching young Bernd Rodieger rip it up, and score one of the best waves of the whole event. Kevin Pritchard was also out throwing huge one footed back loops, and Fransisco Goya tearing it up in the finals, Kevin ended up winning the second final heat after Goya edged him out in the first heat with light winds. One of the biggest highlights for me was when Robby Naish showed up on the second day and was ripping it up and throwing down for the Shadow box jump off.
Quickly Go Mad is an Australian produced DVD that is a must for anybody into speed sailing.
This video is a landmark in Australian windsurfing as it captures the spirit and character of these humble, yet world class windsurfers who are taking their bodies to the highest speeds possible on windsurfing gear.
A truly entertaining documentary, and an extras section featuring GoPro on board footage of speed runs, and a few stacks.
This Wednesday some some pretty good winds at at night at Jericho Beach. And I got to go for a little play after My level one lesson. After words The Sun Set Which was sweet, and I snapped this pic.

The event saw some light winds. But I think everyone had fun. The racing saw four fleets of four all racing on Konas. The Top two advanced to the Semis and So on for a final heat of Four Which I managed to win. The Lightwind Freestyle saw a similar format with four riders on the water at a time, the top two decided by crowd Applause. The winner for Freestyle was Marty Uhl. A big thanks to UBC for organizing the event and Windsport Magazine for subscriptions to the winners, oh and DJ Sarah for the beats. Can’t wait until the next one!
