The new RRD Wave Cult V4
The new RRD Hardcore Wave V4
Stuart Holland (2XS team rider) has sent us these great videos of the (very few) decent kite sessions he has had this year!
If you have an videos of sailing or kiting at West Wittering, please get in contact and we will get them up here.
For 2011, RRD have released a fine selection of waveboards.
We will very shortly have some demo boards at the beach. To come and try one, call 01243 513 077
Roberto Ricci:
The new Wave Cult V4 is a completely re-designed shape. Sharp, fast, instinctive and loose these boards will never let you down when the wind will be gusty or the waves will be mushy yet they will still excel in pumping conditions. The highly acclaimed wave cult has the widest range of use in the RRD wave board collection, whilst the single fin configuration allows you to maximize speed, grip and control from side off to onshore winds.
The shape features: Vee throughout most of the length and a slight double concave in the mid hull section to improve stability. A Max width point about 10 cms forward with a wider nose, which allows a very balanced and proportional outline and keeps a constant curve all the way to the very end of the board.
A full rail shape and generous tucked rails in the front allowed RRD to create fast yet turny wave boards that will be in perfect control in both rough waters or marginal conditions.
The sizes are 75 litres / 56cms, 83 / 58cm and 92 / 60cms, with MFC fins of 22, 23 and 24cms respectively

After one of the longest windless periods we can all remember, those lucky few who can sneak out during the week to play had a moment of respite.
The windguru forecast for last thursday was finally showing a decent number of stars: 25-30 knots with a 3m short period swell.
Thankfully the forecast delivered. Chimet hit 35knots in the middle of the night and built all day. Unfortunately the wind decided to shut off at 4.45pm – perfectly in time to frustrate all the after work sailors!
We are now playing the waiting game again. Stuck with this beautiful sunny weather and hoping for windy storms. Pretty sure we’re all stupid!
Congratulations to Adrian Nesbitt and Adrian Hope-Barr who managed 30.24knots on a freestyle-wave and North Duke and 35.91 knots on a Fanatic Falcon and 5.8 NP RS respectively!

Starting from 8th July, X-Train at West Wittering Windsurf Club will be running Team15 sessions:
Team15 is a nationwide network of windsurfing clubs where young people (aged 15 and under) can get together every week to learn new windsurfing skills and have a laugh with their mates on the water. Since the same faces come back every week, it’s also a great opportunity to make new friends.
Whatever your skill level, regular windsurfing sessions will improve your windsurfing ability very quickly. If you’ve never tried it before, you’ll have the basics mastered in no time. From first time windsurfer to a relative expert, Team15 clubs welcome all levels.
Team15 offers young people the chance to be part of the weekly club sessions and also to participate in the inter-club challenges. It’s your call whether you take part in one or both. But it’s the challenges that give Team15 its name. Each club can enter the inter-club challenges with a team of up to 15 people aged 15 and under; Team15!
At X-Train, we will be running sessions on Thursday afternoons. We have kit but if you have your own, you can bring it down. We are also looking for volunteers to help us run the sessions – a great opportunity if you are starting a career in watersports and it will help us get more kids on to the water.
