Great POV and broadcast quality footage from Egypt and Mauritius.

New Years Eve session at Magheroarty Beach and Reef filmed from my Go Pro mast mount. Waveriding hard to capture on the Go Pro as the perspective is not as good as jumping, i still think it works OK, just wish someone had been videoing from the beach as it really was one of those very special days at this break, it really was Fantasy Windsurfing! I managed to get back my Goita Mojo, i haven't really tried/landed many this year so it was good to bag a few on camera back on the wave, it really is a satisfying move to complete!
I was pretty stacked on my 4.3m (my brother Finn was on a 4.0!) but the wave stays so perfect and glassy, if i'd been in S Africa this winter i would deffos not got as good as conditions as i did in Donegal!!
North, South, East and West home is always the best!!!

Great start to 2012
Epic Jump session at Kimmeridge Bay!
Some runs it was possible to get 3 jumps on one run!
Perfect day, sunny and 4.7m weather.
I was using my 4.7 Severne Blade and Starboard Evo 81.
