Sunset session

 
Great side-on session with Bas at Ouddorp. North-east wind is just perfect for jumping non-stop ;-)

Just too bad the high water in the rivers brought some nasty smelling water right at the spot. Her are some images of the high water in the rivers.

 
It seems some people had is a lot worse.....

Kauli testing to the max

One...

...two...

...tweaked!

 Testing the Firelight...

 ...the Superfreak Maui Edition...

...and the KS3 prototype?!? (don't really like the color combo)

Wavegarden 2.0



Not the same feeling as out in the ocean, but looks like fun. Like the fact that it makes a right and left at the same time.

A deeper shade of blue

A great movie.... a must see!!


Here's the official trailer...

Teriitehau still ripping it

Teahupo'o.... Crazy man still ripping it ;-)

Just to show how crazy, here's a clip of him jumping of a boat in the middle of the Atlantic.... Have to say, it's quite high ;-)

In the picture

Always nice when someone takes a picture of you, even when it's not intended ;-) Thanks Ridge!!

Conditions where bad, but had some time on the water and in the sun to test the light wind ability of my 5,7 Firelight.....

Big wave photography

Surfing Teahupo'o deserves respect (here we see the late Andy Irons), but how about the photographer swimming around in this picture ;-)

SOS sup

Must be nice to live in Japan..... Lots of things available ;-)

Here's a nice looking SUP by Sean available through Stokegear in Japan. One of the only things I can read is FREE shipping, but that probably won't count for shipping to Europe ;-)



Shells




Amazing story

An amazing story about a surfer being rescued some 28hrs after falling overboard. Read the whole story here.

Great day at the beach

Forecast was good, wind and blue sky and on the baby-front it was still quiet, so a great day to head to the beach.

Quite a walk through the dunes :-(

OMG.... it's very windy ;-) Gusts over 40 knots....

Weapons of choice, admired by my 2 (soon to be 3) girls ;-)

Finish the day with a  bite.... Fish & chips!

Kitchenaid


We just invested a good amount of money in a great device: the Kitchenaid Artisan Mixer. But I found a picture with a great alternative use for the mixer ;-)

This guy uses the Kitchenaid as a rotary device to make the shaft of a SUP paddle. I guess we'll stick to food ;-)

Best wipe out

A friend brought this Wipe Out I.P.A. by Port Brewing Company. As I didn't have any water time lately, this was definitely my best wipe out so far this year ;-)

Kai ready for anything

Kai Lenny and his surfboard quiver. Always nice those plain yellow boards by Sean....

2yrs old and living the perfect life

Found this video of a 2 year old (Kiara Goold) living the perfect life. Wish my 2 year old girl could enjoy the water like this, but it's still way too cold overhere :-)
