Finally, my prayers were answered and there were bumps. Mahalo Hiro C. for the surf ski video. Really enjoying watching surf skis in their element.
ps: Now it would really be something, to turn the tables around and watch these same paddlers catching these same bumps on flat water k-1s? Yes, it has and can be done.
That was a great race, we had this surf for the first 35km... the last 5 km were less fun (croos wind then against the wind) !
Hope we'll have the same weather next year. Start to book your tickets.
Hiro C., Again, thanks for posting, for yes, that looked like a "great race." And all long skis (Fenns mostly) too. Wonder what happen to the Tahitian made Bander surf skis? Are they still being made?

Brander is not building skis anymore. There were a few Epics and some tahitian made Richmond, Tehuritaua and Yvon skis.
