Hey friends,

I was kind of off for awhile, i actually needed some time off of kiting and do other stuff, my mind was to much under pressure with the contests, i did for seven year in a row, so i think i deserved to stop a bit.

Gabi Steindl: Lucky 2 be alive !!

Wooooow, ever felt like in a really bad movie guys, do u know that feeling, it isn’t a nice one, yeah…?!

I dont’ really know where 2 start this story, could write a novel here…. mh, I reckon best, where I left u off with a few weeks ago…

So, the past 6 weeks I spent on hardcore wave-training in the outback of W.A.  I had  THE best waves of my life, some serious swells brought cranking conditions and I had time to test my brandnew 2010 North gear extensively in very challenging conditions. the verdict is simple:  The North Rebel 2010 as well as the 2010 Kontact waveboard are  T H E  best pieces of kitegear that I’ve ever had the pleasure of riding in my 8 year career as kite-pro -  S I C K !!!   Detailed reports on the North 2010 kites + boards will be posted in my blog over the next week, thus: stay tuned !
