![]() Board Talk Our 1st Kite wave clinic of this winter went down in deepest Cornwall on the weekend just gone, 12/13th Nov with great success. 5 guys traveled down from as far as Ipswich & Hayling Island to be greated at Gwithian on Saturday morning to perfect 4-5ft waves but unfortunately no wind. Some of us jumped in for a surf before we got Pasties and recoveined at Marazion at 12pm to await the forecasted se wind. With small waves and the breeze filling in we kicked off with a board talk, showing the differences between all the 2012 North surfboards. We then pumped our 12s and went for a quick wave ride before the wind dropped slightly and we were back on the beach for a tacking talk followed by an on water demo. We then postponed until the sunday. As soon as it got dark then wind filled right in (typical) and sunday dawned with 25-30 knts and 2 ft waves at Marazion. A full day followed, covering riding tech, getting out, Gybing, Tacking and strapless jumping, with everyone leaving happy, tired and with plenty to practise. We received some great feedback, such as; 'Best £60 I've spent in a long time' Big thanks to Joe from JNP Events for doing the photos. All the pics of the demos and the guys ripping are availble to buy their website- http://jnpevents.co.uk/photocart/ Our next clinic is on the 26th Nov @ Gwithian and there are currently 3 spaces available so be quick at just £60 for 6 hours. contact me by email lee@pastyadventures.co.uk cheers and stay safe Lee Add Comment The autumn seems to have suddenly kicked in and has brought with it the long awaited wind.

Here is a vid by the BWS crew who sahre exactly the same views as myself. Kiting is an extension to my surfing! Yesterday was perfect for learning to kitesurf down at SandyAcres, Gwithian in Cornwall. Sunny, windy, warm water and an empty golden beach. One lucky budding kitesurfer had it all to herself and after 3 hours was almost up and riding on the board. Just shows waht top instruction and amazing conditions can do. Won't be long before she is joining the others who were out riding, around 5 kitesurfers near us and I counted 22 down riding at the Bluff on Hayle rivermouth.
