Vulcan!

The last couple of days have been pretty good after work for wind so i have been training alot how to vulcan on port tack and have almost got it, after trying so hard on starboard tack for so long (since 09?) i have found the right side, after some very helpful advice from my buddy and manager Paris.

When i first went out on the water there was tonnes of really good freestylers, busting out some awesome moves, konos, no handed flakas, shakas and forwards. In the end everyone went in and it was just me and another guy from Flisvos (Jan) trying to out do eachother both coming in on port tack and trying our hardest to vulcan its was really fun because we where both at the same level, heli tacking and duck gybing on the outside and trying to vulcan coming back to the beach

We got so many pictures of me stacking it all over the place but there are some good ones of the whole eveing.

Hot and no wind!

The past few days have been windless here in Naxos and I think I'm slowly melting because the heat is so extreme when there's no wind. It's been good for lessons so here's a few pictures of Paris the beach manager teaching.
