Polish windsurfer Maciek Ruthowski known more for his slalom sailing shows he’s no slouch in the waves either. The talking is Polish but the action is action!
Here’s the rough translation of what went down:
In early May 2013 the combined with Team Quiksilver Poland and Burn Energy Drink Poland Maciek embarked on a journey in search of wind and waves. Jack and Philip Camera man Czerniec Koritski accompanied him as they traveled more than 5000km across Europe visiting Lake Garda, the southern coast of France, wakepark in Toulouse, and finally the Atlantic coast of Europe – so in a nutshell, it was that sort of adventure.

The PWA Pozo world Cup wrapped up with less then spectacular conditions and only a super session yeilded results.

Some of the top pros were still there including Philip Koster, Alessio Stillrich, 12 year old Niklas Herrera and Victor Fernandez. Pozowinds brings us this radical clip with massive jumps, huge loops and some sick waveriding.

Check out Morgan Noireaux’s edit from Pistol River. Morgan is currently ranked 4th on the AWT and will be heading to the Desert Showdown next.
This was filmed while I was in Oregon for the AWT Pistol river wave bash. We went there a few days in advance with the intention of filming but we ended up only getting two days of wind. This one and the day of the contest which wasn’t really worth filming. All of this was filmed during one session at Cape Sebestian. Nothing amazing, just a fun mellow session. I’d love to sail the Cape when it’s bigger though, it must be pretty epic. – Noireaux
Also known as the “Köster Kode”, the 2014 Kode Wave is faster, lighter and more durable for the aerial-style next generation. Let Philip and Boujmaa show you.
Speed, flow and power brought to you by Scott McKercher. Meet the 2014 version of Starboard’s trademark wave board.
In collaboration with James Hooper and NUDE Customs, Starboard is proud to present the second generation of NuEvos, with an even bigger range to suit all riders.
The WA crew head over to Cairns Australia to compete in the first Australian freestyle nationals on Green Island. The video gives a feel for the island, the conditions, and the up-and -coming freestyle scene in Australia. Unfortunately we had the strong wind on the first few days, and went windsurfing instead of filming, so we can promise the island does get windier than this.
Another great clip from Pozo, this Time from Team France Windsurf featuring Antoine Martin, Thomas Traversa and brothers Jules and Justin Denel.
