A quick update on the AWT. The Hatteras wave Jam wrapped up on September 15th. The final heat came down to an epic battle between Camille Juban, Fabrice Beaux and Morgan Noireaux. It was a super close contest with Juban’s Goiter (photo above) giving him the edge over the smooth sailing Beaux and slashy Noireaux. Over on the women’s side Miho Tanaka took the crown by narrowly defeating Fiona Wylde, Ingrid Larouche and Sam Bittner. After all the action everyone headed over to the Koru Beach Klub for amazing final send-off party. Beer flowed and North Carolina BBQ was enjoyed.

lmost flat water, 18 to 30 knots and 35°C and almost noone else around.
That’s the new spot we’ve discovered in Masirah Island, Oman, that I’ve personally nicknamed “LifeLine”.
This is the kind of conditions I dream about when I’m stuck at Lake Garda sailing
with that infamous motocross chop…
The soundtrack beat I produced using FLstudio9 is called “Sitar Trap”, and available for downloading on my soundcloud. Turn it uppp..

Hood river is far from the only place that goes off in Oregon, the coast has several incredible wave sailing spots. check out this awesome video of Oceanside Oregon on Spetember 11th, 2012, filmed by Trudy Lary.
Swiss freestyler Loick Spicher travelled to Brazil and finished made this clip from last weekend sailing at Camocim, also featuring Hugo de Souza and Jamilson de Souza.
I made a clip out of our footage we had from last Saturday and Sunday.
As you can see in the movie the two locals Jamilson and Hugo are ripping really good. Hugo who is only 15 years old, improved very much and is now landing impressive moves. Even he had almost no sailing since January, he improves so fast that in only one month he makes big steps. Since August he is back on the water and sails every day.
After having his FIRST double Culos attempts last Saturday, I can tell you now that yesterday in the late afternoon he already made it to land one perfectly clean!
The question now is: Who will be the first to make him sign a contract and bring him to competition?
For me it’s just a question of the time till Hugo is going to challenge with the world best freestylers. – Loick Spicher
