A slightly complex left

No comments.-

It’s our last full day in Lanzarote and rare south winds have decreed the left-hander by the Club La Santa complex, a.k.a. ‘Complex Left’ to be a good choice. It’s quite a tight little cove but the way that the wave pushes down along the headland means that you get some real leg aching rides [...]

Why are we doing this?

No comments.-

I’m in Lanzarote for a week to go surfing. I won’t lie, it can be a brutal place to surf. But lovely solar energy is coming down from the sky, and that same radiation is heating the oceans and creating storms which then send waves our way. Many tourists come to Lanzarote to enjoy the [...]

A few phone pics from roving around Britain

4 comments.-

Back in Cornwall now from my ‘tri nations’ road trip. Last Friday I set off for Troon in Ayreshire, Scotland. Then it was down to Earby, Lancs for a few days with ‘pops’ and a sprint over to kite at Fleetwood. Then, it was further down to Wales where I’ve just come back from a [...]

Problem with BlackBerry WordPress app – doesn’t show pictures.

There’s a problem with my WordPress for BlackBerry app: it no longer allows me to post images when writing a post from my phone. I’ve got the latest version of Wp, and till recently it was working fine. I’ve tried deleting it and reinstalling, but no joy. Dunno what the problem is because I used [...]

Intermission: A preface to Maui

No comments.-

***EDIT***: UK and United Airlines in good service shocker! The longest journeys start with the smallest step, and this morning my ‘other side of the world’ voyage began with a 3 minute taxi ride to Newquay train station. It turned out to be the most critical part, because I was late and was going to [...]

Cure colds and cast out weakness

No comments.-

Here’s a quick tip if you’re ever feeling like a cold or illness is coming on. Don’t bother trying to dose up on Vitamin C, instead dose up on harmless protein powder. One of the best is this Sanatogen Whey Protein that packs 81g pure protein per 100g, and a little bit of carbs. £8.99 [...]

GoPro fogging and distortion problems

5 comments.-

Robust and rugged as the GoPro is, you still need to pay a little bit of attention to this little camera’s needs if you want to optimise your yield of good shots each session. Problems of water on the lens are well documented and Rain-X or simply wiping the lens can solve that. Less known [...]

Official Bandit 4 Info

No comments.-

Quick post today. I’m out here in Mauritius courtesy of F-One to get a very thorough test of the hotly anticipated Bandit 4 kite. I’ve previously leaked some info revealing that the Bandit 4 will be a three strut kite with more squared wing tips. I can confirm that it is also still a Delta [...]
