My new Flikka boards!

The 84 Mons Fish . Fast, superloose and direct!

Totally made of Textreme. Light, strong and when wet
looking at it makes you paranoid ;-)

Color: a homage to the Klepper 272..


Quad
Mono concave with double concave


Testing the anti slip..



Boards come with superb padz

The slotboxes that are used are made of carbon/hard pvc
Each box is only about 100 gram

This is how we mount footstraps!. 2 Solid bolts!. A Flikka standard!


Make it easy..
One tool (comes with the board) for fins, straps and airvalve.
You can also get a goretex valve.. but that's not my cup of tea

The finbag + extra spare parts.

Yummy...The fins!!
2x set sideshore editions (custom made) and a onshore set.


The 96 Mons Fish. aka the Ile Flottante
The play in the waves with not so much wind board!




2 sets of fins. Side and onshore


A gym in the garden..

The instructor keeps an eye on me..

Never went to a gym or a sportschool...
I prefer a workout that is usefull


not finished yet..

Windsurf tubetime.. Mullagmore, Ireland



Ireland was being battered by 50+ft waves and Mullaghmore was the place to be, even if you’re windsurfer. Tim Mullen got himself properly tubed by a Mullaghmore monster – for a few split seconds anyway. There can’t be that many windsurfers ever who’ve had a wipeout like this – utterly destroyed by a giant barrel, eating board, rider, mast and sail, in one huge bite


Honolua bay

Honolua bay. Sick to say the least. This is probably the best surf spot on the island. Clean waves breaking around the point and a really nice cliff to shoot photos from. Unfortunately we didn't had our boards with us, but we'll check this out ourselves soon. 

It was nice to see some boogieboard kids ripping it, but also some old guys still ruling the game.

Old dude ripping!

Old dude dipping!
