I’m also planning to go out in Parkvägen tomorrow, it seems in the morning the probability of rain is lower.

Amazing 1st session of the season! I didn’t know this spot and is from today my fauvorite; decent waves, nice beach and friendly people!

Hi ,

To plåtslagarn: Is pretty much as Mattias explained. I think there are at least 2 modalities; beach start or water start and seems experience and having a watch is really important to do a good start. At the beggining of this video you can see a water start.

To Pathfinder: Thanks some people form Malmo already contacted me. If you could let the people you know my email or point them to this thread would be great. The more the better! I won’t be able to go to Malmo tomorrow but I hope there will be more pub meetigns to join. In regards of FB, I haven’t got an account myself and I wouldn’t want that to be a requirement so I was more thinking in a web for the club where which we can develop according to the needs of the club. That’s my opinion though, all these things are open for discussion.

To Fox: You set your own limits, I’ve seen +60 years old kiters in UK ripping waves like pros in winter. So I’ll be very happy to see ”experienced” kiters joining the club 🙂

Best regards
Isidro

Hi Mattias,

Yes I agree to have events opened for TT and surfboards, as are by far the most common.

C’mon guys!! I received just few emails. I think it would be great to have a lot of people involved since the begining.

Great!

Please send your contact details to isidrov@gmail.com to include you in future discussions. I’ve kept yours already Kaj!

Looking forward to see the foils and Boards! Do you know if they are planning to release a Racing board? apparently they will release a dedicated race bar early next year.

I’ve just got O’neill psycho freak 4.5/3.5. A colleague was using it in winter in UK and he didn’t feel cold at all, actually was sweting while I was frezing with my Mistic. I haven’t tried it yet but I will let you know how it is next time in the water. I’ve tried also the windfreak in a shop an while I was trying it it broke. In the shop they advice they are quite fragile, any scratch will make it break so I personally don’t recommend it. cheers, Isidro

No problem, my fault for being such a disaster!

[isidro]

Hi Regfellow. I passed by today but I couldn’t find it after looking around the big log for some time. Anyways thanks for putting it aside and letting me know. cheers, Isidro.

Surfer Love ?? you will have to explain me that! No need to give thanks really, is the least I can do for the times I’ve been rescued 🙂 Hope we can have many more days this winter like last Sunday at Falsterbo, that was a damm good sunny session!

Hi Pjoter,

thanks for showing interest. I’ve definetly have the energy, I’ll figure out how to get some time for this! I’ve spoken with Erik from Kite.se who thinks is also a good idea and we agree to meet around November. As a starting point I’d like to collect email adresses of those who are interested in Racing and start a discussion to define goals and benefits a club could bring us.

Could anyone who is interested send me an email to isidrov@gmail.com?

Thanks!
Isidro

Thanks for letting me know guys. I think around here there are perfect conditions for racing and I really would like to give a try. Yes the raceboard investment is the worst part, why I was looking for some clubs or people who could recommend options.

If anyone has the same interest or has already gotten into it, please let me know. Would be great to set up something like a twin tip race event? or just join forces and share a board!

cheers
Isidro
