Zara Davis achieves No1.

The UK’s queen of speed has now taken the top spot on the official International Speed Windsurfing Class ranking. Zara who only started Speed sailing in 2005 has slowly clawed her way up the ranking list by consistent performances at international events like the European Championships last year in Ireland.

It is a bitter sweet victory though as the upcoming World Championships at the legendary site of Sotovento has been cancelled due to the recession. Zara said “ It is great to be ranked No 1 in the world but it’s the world championships I was looking forward to, It attracts all the top girls and It would have been great to achieve the World title on a level playing field”

Zara is sponsored by Mistral, Simmer, Dakine, Spartan, Sonntag fins and Walnut grove Clinic. To keep up to date with Zara’s travels check out her website www.zaradavis.co.uk

    What goes around.

    Fashion changes fast and the good old windsurfing harness is no exception. As we all know, back in the early days men were men. There was no silly mucking about with harnesses and lines. Either you grew callouses and strong back muscles or you gave up. Fortunately, common sense prevailed and the harness was invented.

    From chest to waist to seat and even shorts, we now have many choices. The current trend seems to be for the waist harness with many moving from a seat harness following the guru's. Back in 1988 things were different as this article taken from ONBOARD magazine shows.

    Children of the Wind

    In 2010 Seek Films will travel to the small island of Bonaire to tell the story of how young local windsurfers have

    transformed their community, their island and the sport worldwide. Nine years ago, Bonaire's local children

    shocked the world with their unprecedented skill in windsurfing, and have since journeyed to international fame: all because of a small group of mentors led by Elvis Martinus.

    Our documentary will follow these children from their humble beginnings to the cover of magazines and what they learned in the process; how they took their fame and returned it back to the local people with humility and pride. Along the way, as the children continue to chase their dreams in fierce competition, tears will be shed, lives will be changed, and new heroes will be born.

    Helmet Cam - South Coast Action

    Over the years there have been many waterproof cameras available but they have been very expensive or poor quality. In the last couple of years this has changed as this video, shot with the Go Pro 5, goes to show. Its wide angle lens and good quality sensor have allowed south coaster and Boards Forum regular, gmac, to produce this little film. It is his first attempt at filming and editing with excellent results. Nice action mate, hope to see many more from you over the coming year.

    More information on the GoPro range can be found at http://www.goprocamera.com/

      Am I loosing the plot, crawled out of my tent at 5am to watch the sun coming over the mountain before heading to the water with a SUP board. To be honest I thought my camping days were over and as for the SUP boards, well lets just say I tried it but didn’t understand what all the fuss was about, why paddle when a rig will do.
