This summer Max Brinnich and René Widmann were searching for something different. Sri Lanka promised good conditions and lonely spots – so they went for the adventure! But pictures probably tell more then thousands of words….
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!

Short clip from Davy visiting Adriatic sea… we checked some spots and filmed on very popular early morning spot in the north of Croatia… Waking up 3AM, driving one and a half hour to the spot… rigging up in dark and hitting the water half an hour before the sun rises… The colors… the picture you get that moment on the water is priceless… There is not a lot of action as Davy “kissed” the boom and we had to drive to the hospital nearby to stitch him up 😛 … bad luck but still we had nice conditions and a looooot of fun! Check it out …
