REVIEW: EZZY LEGACY 2013
Published May 18, 2013 - No Comments
This year I bought myself a brand new set of sails for the first time ever in my live! As I sailed Ezzy Wave SE 2008 sails, which still did very good, I was looking for a moment to replace my most used sails into new Ezzy’s. I really like the Elite, as well as [...]

Published May 12, 2013 - 7 Comments
Jacco and Peter did reviews of their Quatro Thruster LS and Quad LS a few weeks ago. We thought it would be nice to switch their boards to see what the difference and similarities are between these boards (apart from the obvious fin setup). Here’s what they had to say after a sweet s ...

HOW LOW CAN YOU GO?
Published March 13, 2013 - 2 Comments
We haven’t been very fortunate these past weeks when it comes to warm weather and strong wind (from a favourable direction). This doesn’t mean you have to stay at home in front of the fireplace. Let me tell you what I did when I surfed my coldest sessions ever! It started with ...

INCREASE YOUR TIME ON THE WATER, GO SUP!
Published March 8, 2013 - 6 Comments
One year ago I decided to sell my slalom gear (Isonics and Severne Code Reds) as I live in Scheveningen close to the North Sea and only once in a while used my slalom gear in light winds. I decided to start supping to get more TOW (Time On the Water) on windless periods and bought m ...

Lets start with a compilation of 2012, a summary of all my windsurfsessions of the 2012 on different spots on the Dutch shore. I had several goals this year; I made progression on my waveriding-skilz, sticked a lot of aerials and tacks and got closer to sticking backloops. So even when y ...

Published January 3, 2013 - 10 Comments
The first time I tried a Quad board, at the end of 2009, I fell in love with the concept and feel of the board. Wave riding became so much more fun with the drive the fins gave you in a turn. The only production board back then was the Starboard Quad ’10. I had [...]

Published December 22, 2012 - No Comments
A few weeks ago Edwin (and a few other stormchasers) went windsurfing at Wijk aan Zee during one of the biggest storms this year. Gusts of 60 knots made Edwin’s 3.2 sail feel quite big. Surf Magazine in the Netherlands asked a number of sailors to share their impressions of that day ...
