Marshall Island Windsurfing Exploration

The trip of a lifetime.

Kevin Pritchard had been bugging Keith Teboul about going to the Marshall Islands for some windsurfing and some good times. Finally a message came, “Marshalls are going to be good on Thursday, flight leaves tomorrow, bring your camera, your windsurfer, and plenty of sunscreen. You in?” said Keith.

Well let Kevin’s Story tell the rest:

Excited like a kid on Christmas, I booked my flights, bought some sunscreen and we were off. I think the images speak for themselves. The beauty of the Marshall Islands is amazing. While this video only shows hard core waves, it seems funny to say, but the thought of freeriding around this place had me pretty fired up. I would say this is the most beautiful place I have been on Earth. 4 Million frequent flyer miles, 27 countries, never have I seen a place like it.

Marcilio Browne and Bernd Roediger came along with Keith and I and the trip was a blast. Brawzinho was insane to watch as you will soon see, with some nasty wipeouts. Bernd was even more impressive as he had stayed there for 6 weeks and was really starting to let loose when he was getting barreled by the sea monster and came up with a broken back and some serious time off the water, only allowing us to get a couple clips of him ripping it up.

Keith organizes some amazing trips together with Martin Daly @ marshallwaves.com It is a once in a lifetime opportunity. The water, the beauty, just incredible. Hope you enjoy the clip.

Enjoy the clip, and the Marshal Islands are a place to add to the bucket list of windsurfing destinations!

2013 Quatro LS Quad

Keith Teboul on the 2013 Quatro LS Quad. The LS Quad was developed closely with Levi Siver.

Gear – 2013 Quatro Thruster LS

For all you gear junkies here is Keith Teboul introduces you to the 2013 Thruster LS which replaced the Single Fin from last year. The LS stands for Levi Siver, but that doesn’t mean you have to be pro to ride it, a v bottom helps make it fast and smooth absorbing chop, combined with a fast rocker and pulled in tail to help turning. If you’re looking for your first multi-fin board this would be a great choice.

Multifin Setting w/ Keith Teboul

Quatro shaper Keith Teboul discusses setting up a Quatro board with fixed fins. Although targeted to the Quatro’s fixed fin setup, his basic principles are the same for all boards.

Footstraps – Back for a quicker shorter turn, and forward for a longer turn with more drive. Also Heavier you may want to be more forward and lighter sailors further back.

Mast Track – Back for easier tighter turning, and forward for more drive.

Don’t be afraid to go out and come back in to adjust settings!
