After the KSP comp in Pacasmayo I traveled North to Lobitos for a week of barrels.
I wasnt disappointed scoring some epic surfs despite the crowds and heavy rip. This place is just built for kiting and I scored many great hours either by myself or with a few others. Along with the cheap accommodation and food, this was for sure one of my best weeks of the year! Full story to come in the mags but heres a few pics for a taste.

Coming up I have a wave clinic at home here in Cornwall next week and then I'm off to Cape Verde for the last stop of the year on Tuesday. Be sure to watch it live at www.kspworldtour.com

Sal Cape Verde, Wave Adventure 19-26th Jan

The KSP have just released details of the upcoming event at One Eye, one of if not the best kitesurfing wave on the planet. Can't wait to get there but still in need of some sponsors to help me represent Cornwall and the UK on the highest level world championship tour. See below for the offical press release-
July 21, 2011: The inaugural Mauritius One Eye Pro is set to kick off this year’s KSP World Championship Tour and promises to deliver high caliber, action packed kite surfing. From September 23 to 29, 2011, (with a possible extension period until October 2, 2011) the world’s best kite surfers will vie for the first of three coveted KSP World Tour event titles.

The event will take place at One Eye, a world-class kite surf wave located directly in front of the Indian Resort and Spa at the base of the Le Morne Mountain, a World Heritage Site, renowned for it’s stunning scenery, pristine turquoise waters and perfect surf.  

Local organizer Patrick Desvaux de Marigny states: "We are proud to be able to bring the first ever stop of the KSP world championship tour to One Eye in Le Morne, Mauritius. This event will go down in history, not only for being the launch of an amazing tour with a big future but also for radical wave conditions that give the riders the ability to express their kite surfing styles and techniques to the max."

The KSP is excited to announce it's cooperation with some amazing local partners and sponsors, such as the main event partner the Indian Resort and Spa that agreed not only to host the event, but to also supply free accommodation for the world’s top 24 male and 12 female kite surfers.

Nadine Cameleyre, Managing Director of the Apavou group says: “The Indian Resort and Spa is scattered amidst a succession of lush tropical gardens of 7 hectare, bordered by immense, pristine beaches of white sand just in front of the surfers’ mythical spot One Eye. It is within this exceptional site that the KITE SURF PRO world championship tour event will be held in September 2011. It is with much joy that the Indian Resort is associating in this event as a main sponsor. Through this worldwide event, the Indian Resort shows its implication in the development of this sport in Mauritius and in the promotion of the spot & the destination.”

Additional partners for the Mauritius One Eye Pro include Mauritours Ltd. Travel & Tourism Company, the local travel partner that will also offer free airport/hotel shuttles for all riders, as well as Club Mistral Mauritius, the KSP logistics partner for the event.

The KSP is honored to be working with such an exemplary list of sponsors and partners and is looking forward to a very exciting Mauritius One Eye Pro and the kickoff event to the 2011 KSP World Championship Tour.

After featuring in most issues of Kitesurf magazine for around a year, March 2009 sees me feature for the first time in both magazines at once and the same mag as Mick Fanning!

After an epic winter of waves here in Cornwall, its good to see the UK being regognised as having top quality breaks alongside far away dream destinations. Working with top surf photographers, you can be sure to see me in many more mags and websites, such as www.surftwisted.com where they are realising the potential of kites in waves and spreading the word to surfers across the world.

Been some epic days this past week and they got some cracking shots so as well as this months, make sure you buy next monts issues!

Happy Riding

Well the weather has all changed and it's been snowing properly here for the first time in quite a few years.

Checked lev this morning on way to sea to shoot the nets and was surprised to see 4ft pumping. had some massive blizzards at sea and when i got back to lev it was all white on the rocks. a bit smaller but warmer in the sea at 10 degrees and with a full load of West rubber i was nice and warm staying out of the snow and in the baz!

check the pic of team mate will b covered in white stuff and loving it!

quite why the spongers don't wear any boots is beyond me though and with how good hats and gloves are now days why would you not wear them in a blizzard?


bring on the tropical south westers again, i though we were meant to be experiencing global warming!


had a lot of fun riding the booge(Tara's idea) in the park this evening with my girlfriend Tara nailing a 360 spin. ooh yeah! if its snowing near you forget the sledge, its all about the slick bottom , cheaper the better!


have fnu
