WINDFEST 2010

Hey all,

Hope everyone it getting out on the water before the winter comes along..

Last week from Thursday to Monday I was a WindFest at Sandbanks way down south in Bournemouth. This was an insane long weekend of my summer and I really enjoyed it!

Windfest is a small festival to do with all different kinds of sports mainly kitesurfing. Some of the other activities that were going on was the Animal bike tour, tight rope walking, The wakeboard and wakeskate pool gap on the beach and many more. Then on an evening was different themed party nights.

The pool gap was built into the beach two pools dug out and filled with the sea water then we had these obstacles in between the pools to hit, a gap roof top, box and a c-rail, all of these rails were fun and a challenge for all of the riders, which made it exciting for the big crowds on Sandbanks. There was riders from all over this year that came over, some from nottingham, sheffield and a few from london aswell as the Dirty South crew that live in that area.

Oli and Liam from the Dirty South helped me out letting me stay with them at Olis place and Miller for making a fun event. Also Parky that runs the Rockstar wakeboard boat down there.

This year was even better than last year with everyone there and all the people I have met. From the riding there was lots going off with all different tricks going down and even some good crashed, always a good crowd pleaser! ha.

It was also fun watching the other sports and having a go at them like the tight rope walking was a real challenge but lots of fun, and the guys there were insane doing seat drops on them and 1 guys was trying backflips and landing back on the rope!

Thanks everyone and all the photographers, this has been a real fun weekend and looking forward to next years Windfest!

laters..
