Filmed in and around Cape Town. A short promotional video from this last winter. Was a good season in Cape Town with plenty of waves but less wind than usual. After hurting my ankle in November, almost half the 4 month trip was cut short from tearing my ligaments. Fortunately I had a decent month towards the end with a fully healed foot and some solid forecasts.
Most of the time we were testing and shooting the Gaastra / Tabou 2013 gear but this is some of the footage on the current 2012 boards and sails. Now working on a full video from the rest of the trip with the 2013 gear which is coming this summer, and is awesome. Most of the footage was filmed by my girlfriend, Rebecca Ashton.
I had to steal this awesome pic from Josh Sampieros facebook group post in Appeal against kite surfing in the Olympics put windsurfing back in! However true it is, I would still like to see windsurfing as an Olympic disciple. So please head over and sign the petition ISAF: Keep Windsurfing as Olympic Discipline.

The Santa Cruz Goya Windsurfing Festival is in the books and will be remembered for years to come as an epic contest. We had amazing wind and waves over two days of competition. What a great way to kick off the 2012 AWT tour. Davenport Surf and Sail hosted an incredible closing party where all the winners and $5,000 prize money was awarded. Thanks to everyone who helped out and supported this great event. See you all at Pistol River next month.
