water shoot action!







I got out for a water shoot two days ago here in Dahab, with some of the staff sailors. It was great fun if a little scary at times, the scariest moments not being the guys freestyling incredibly close but the other random sailors who seemed to magnetically attracted to wherever I seemed to go...its always the way.
We got some great shots, some of which i have put up for you to see. I will also be putting images on our facebook page, Getwindsurfing http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=108269209223401.
Check out our page and join up if you haven't already.

Road tripping round the Sinai!

Back in El Tur, we are spending some time planning some future clinics and getting some photos and footage for promotion. Its good to be back, we had a great session up at the wavebeach yesterday, the waves were awesome, got some good airtime as well as some great riding. Who says Egypt is only for flat water!
We are now in the car, using mobile internet (Egypt is coming along in the world of technology) and we are on the road north from El Tur, headed to Moon Beach to check the location out for future work and clinic oportunities. Its really exciting, and we are looking forward to getting on the water to see what its all about, as well as meeting the team and seeing what kit they have. I have now set up a blog for the next El Tornament, check it out: www.eltornament2010.blogspot.com
We will be updating this as soon as possible, so keep checking it out. The comp will be on the 31st July so we have less than one month now to get everyone involved, arrange prizes and make it a great event again, following last years. Can't wait!

dahab action :)






Having spent a few days getting settled in Dahab, we are now back in El Tur for a short while to handover to the new manager of Oceansource. We managed to get some photo time for ourselves yesterday whilst shooting in Dahab...good day with a nice mix of work and play...here's a few to taste, its great to shoot in a new location and i can see Dahab has a lot of potential for different angles which will work great at different times of day...good stuff :)
Oh yeah hop you like the lion fish, we think it is pretty cool! :) We have some local camels by our house, they will be featuring soon too :)

New Pad :)




We have now moved home, from the west coast of the Sinai Penisular in Egypt to the East coast. From El Tur to Dahab. Dahab is a very famous windsurfing spot, where we have decided to base ourselves for the rest of the summer to try to establish ourselves as freelance coaches and also we will be doing some photography on the side too.
Our new pad is really nice, very hot today but everywhere is with 45degrees C +!!! I have attached some pics, please note the empty bedroom waiting for guests ;)
All is good here, and will hopefully get some fresh pictures of me and mr phil up on here very soon....very busy with new plans but we will make sure of it!

A little more time now....





I edited my blog and now I can't undo the changes, so I am stuck with Jelly beans for now as I can't find anything better! I was hoping I could use my own photo for the background but apparently not :(

Now we have a little more time, after a brilliant week with the Bray Lake group, I have put up some more pictures for you.

Phil and I have also had some time and decided on a new name for our website for our up and coming job change and new adventures (trying to break into the world of freelance coaching), beginning here in Egypt and then hoping to succeed and take our work all over. Once we have the site up and running I will let you know! Its all very exciting though. Watch this space ;)

We have had a really busy week, with Bray Lake club trip coming to stay and lots of wind. Its been great fun, and even had a little time for blasting with mates and some short freestyle sessions. I have put up a couple of pics, more to come soon :) I am also putting together a video with some Go-pro clips and recent Dahab action so watch this space...coming soon!
