The Can Can
It’s always fun to throw down some shapes whilst airborne, and anything with a bit of humour should get the nod, so why not add a bit of “ooh la la” with the Can Can to your bag of tricks. As the name suggests you’ll be mimicking the great French tradition, and although there is no need to visualise yourself…
Hand Wash Back Loop Transition
We’ve had a bit of demand for this one. There’s probably another name for it, maybe a hand drag BLT or some such, but we’ll keep real to our windsurfing roots where the hand wash gybe was a firm favourite among some of our European neighbours, strap to strap of course but that’s another story and we digress. The idea…

DUOTONE Pro Whip
The Pro Whip has long been a favourite board of ours, we’re big fans of the CSC shape - it makes it easy to travel with, and it’s also a Jack-of-all-trades board. For 2020 there has been a major overhaul from shaper Sky Solbach. The wide point has been moved further forwards, and there is an increase in nose rocker…
