Four Dimensions - en surfrulle av världsklass!


Efter att på planet till Gran Canaria läst en artikel i Search Magazine kunde jag inte motstå frestelsen att köpa mig ett eget exemplar av André Paskowskis film FOUR DIMENSION - The time has come - när jag senare samma dag stod på Cutre i Pozo.

Väl hemma i kalla Sverige igen installerade jag mig i TV-soffan och satte på DVDn. God dammit! Detta är utan tvekan en film som med värdighet tar över staffettpinnen efter RIP (Robby Naish) som den bästa vindsurf/lifestyle film jag sett. Såg den två gånger på raken!!!

André har till sammans med vår egen Peter Svensson gett allt för att få till en kanonrulle fullmatad med supernice vindsurfing.

Kan varmt rekommendera denna film som garanterat skänker dig möjlighet att försvinna till exotiska surfspots, om även bara för ett tag.

COLD HAWAII PWA WORLD CUP, SEPTEMBER 2010

Cold Hawaii is in Denmark!

In September 2010, the waves and wind of the northern part of Denmark will welcome the best international windsurfers at the first Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup. A unique event, which is part of the most prestigious windsurfing world cup series worldwide.



The Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup will be staged in the northern part of Jutland 13 to 19 September 2010 and it is all about the “wave performance” discipline in windsurfing.

The Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup embraces the best 48 wave sailing windsurfers in the world, who will no doubt do their utmost to achieve the important world cup points and qualify for the prize of 30,000 Euro.

The Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup is meant to be an annual event in the village of Klitmøller,- the capitol of Cold Hawaii.

Project manager for the Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup is Robert Sand, who grew up in Klitmøller and is still living there. Robert Sand is one of Denmark’s most experienced windsurfers and has competed on the world tour for many years.

PWA tour manager Rich Page finishes: The PWA is delighted to finally be making the Journey to Klitmoller for the Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup. As a well known and long established wave sailing location, Klitmoller is well overdue its place on the PWA Tour, having been visited by PWA riders on many occasions.

Finally, thanks to the hard work of the local organisation team and thegenerous support of all those contributing to the event, Denmark will havean opportunity to prove to the world just what it has to offer in terms of top rate windsurfing conditions, as the greatest windsurfing show on Earthcomes to town!"

Pozo Social Club


Just back after a week in Pozo, Gran Canaria.
Not a very windy visit but I had the posibility to try my new gear.

After a week of early morning surfsessions the weather finally changed and on our very last afternoon the steady northeasterly trade wind started to blow. Not to strong though but just strong enough to send us all out on the water with a 90 litre waveboard and a 5,7 sail.

I must say that the planing ability of the JP Twinser 92 is really good...
Together with my Simmer BlackTip, which is a great wave/freestylesail, I just flew over the small waves in Pozo. Even though I havn´t been sailing for a while and I had an brand new equipment to ride on I found myself very comfortable rippin´ some of the surf down by the bunker and getting airborne on my way out.

My friend Mårten Cegrell and I started every morning with a nice morningsession down at Faro. Lucky as never before we scored nice waves every morning. Sitting on the lineup watching the sun rise at horizon really make one feel alive.

Now I can´t wait for the winter to let go of us up here in the cold so we all can go out rippin´again at out nice homespots along the widestreched swedish coastline.

Meanwhile we are already planning the next trip to a foreign country for some exotic surf...

Surf´s Up

New Gear

Last week I signed with my new sponsor, Surfers Pardise, who will provide me with all the latest gear from JP and Simmer.

I am sure riding on JP and Simmer will keep me on top of the Swedish ranking for the next few years as well.
