:: New Personal Best...

I already set a new personal best this year... in number of kitesurfing sessions! And with still a few weeks to go before the end of 2007...

No, no and no! I won't reveal the exact number - for privacy and decency reasons Tongue out

But you still can try to guess using the comments area... To celebrate this, I put together a new short video summarizing this great windy season.

A huge THANK YOU to my 2 dear friends: DimiExter for spending so much time fine-shooting me and DJ Firestone for specially mixing me the music.

Pop-up the volume and enjoy a recap of my 2007 season (made only with still pictures!!!)

:: Super fall swell and no oil trace at WC...

Sweet sesh on my hydra 9 with a super fat fall swell...

...and a good news; no trace of this damn catastrophic 58,000 gallons of oil on the Waddell Creek beach...

:: My new board shorts...

default

Call me "fashion guy" if you want (did I hear Metro? :-)), but I have always been very picky about clothing and gear...
I have now been using my new kiteboarding shorts from XWY for a few weeks and I am so pleased with it. As one local guy told me recently on the beach: "This is the sickest kiteboarding shorts ever!"

  • First, I definitively like the style as I always liked long board shorts. And you don't have to worry about it while riding/jumping because it has stretch materials where needed (knees and butt).
  • The best thing: you finally never need to pull on your shorts again... It has embedded weights to avoid it rolling up while riding! Freaking awesome!!!
  • And it's a great board shorts to wear on top of your wetsuit because it is very thick and it will surely protect it very well; But it is very cool when you just wear the shorts because it is so amazingly warm and comfy. Here at Maui, I can't get enough of it and wear it all the time!!!
  • Finally, this board shorts, designed only for kitesurfing, has even inside padding to protect from small water impact...
