Wow! Well done Johnno. Congratulations to you. That is an awesome achievement.

Great effort from Damo as well. Serious WA representation on the podium!

when is the next racing comp happening!?

we need to get the ball rolling!!!

Marvin's got 4 racing buoys, we just need volunteers, a few boats and wind, and we could make another racing comp soon!
who's keen!???

see you soon on the water, with hopefully more time & wind to run more races :0)

of course we'll drive down!!! and we'll bring down the big buoys if needed?
that's great news Joe!

We will host a race in mackay next month if you guys up North are keen to drive down. Should be back on the water by then

hell yea Joe!! we are in :) but only if you race too!

Hi Jonno,
let us know when registrations are opening for the Rottnest island race? Kim (my girlfrined) and I will try to make it then :0)

also, if you are looking for lighter (full carbon) custom made fins for your board, at reasonable prices, you could send an inquiry to french shaper Jerome Courtois:

He made my board and my girlfriends' board + fins

you can check out his blog: http://jc-kiteboards.fr/news/
he makes a lot of nice & cool toys: foil boards, foldable surboards, race boards, etc

it was great meeting you and hopefully see you soon on the water :0)
