a true windsurfing story

Testing Starboards and the Reflex in Thailand

Back from Vietnam we immediately went for testing new iSonics. We drove from Bangkok down to Prak Nam Pran. Remi had a lot of gear on his pickup. The windconditions were excellent. 12 to 18 knots from southern direction. The spot is definitely one of Thailand´s best. Kerstin and myself were here back in 2007 already, when exploring Thailand for windsurfing spots. Besides testing iSONICs 111 I could test a Reflex 7,8 m Proto. Just can say the sail has power plus super smooth cam rotation!!

Can´t await to ride on the production sails!

We will stay for one more day. Let´s see, if we are lucky with the wind again.

    John has just bought an Evo – think it is 75L. First time we are having a Starboard in our family – usually Fanatic! He is really excited about it and should arrive in around 10 days time. I am looking forward to trying it out myself too.
