My Sponsors

My Current Sponsors Are :-

Mistral since 1976 have been one of the leading brands in windsurfing and in the early 80's through to the mid to late 90's virtually every board sold by Mistral was a test winner and every windsurfer aspired to own a Mistral board as it was the Rolls Royce of boards. I myself had a succession of Mistral boards while racing in the early 90's as they were the best out there. More recently they lost their way a bit until 2 years ago when the legendary Anders Bringdal took over the company. Now with Anders at the helm they will be re-installed amongst the best brands out there and i am stoked to now be part of this. I get my Mistral Boards through my shop sponsorship with Wind & Wave here in Ireland

Windsurfingfins.co.uk is the brainchild of Dave Gollick a windsurfer for the past 30 years. This website is dedicated to fins. He felt that there is alot of hype surrounding the area and that there is insufficient information available to make a decision let alone choice in product. many windsurfers treat the fin as a second class citizen concentrating on the board and sail and not considering the fin choice and whether it is suitable for the board they are using. He know that alot of windsurfers would have thought of this but there is still a large compliment of windsurfers uneducated towards this subject. Dave has been working with all the major brands to bring the consumer the ability to make a informed choice. Dave's range of fins covers all varieties from Waves to Slalom, Formula and Speed fins. The fins designers work with various materials from CNC machined G10 to the more expensive custom carbon lay ups. Dave has tried to consider all abilities and needs from the weekend sailor right up to the pro.

Curve Surf Products are a new New Zealand surf travel gear company who's products are designed in the rugged and remote testing grounds of a swell drenched corner of the Pacific Ocean. Curve presents a breath of fresh air in surf gear innovation. A complete surf system comprising 11 unique and innovative surfing hardware accessories. Curve is designed for core surfers who demand the best in protective travel equipment for their boards.

Curve is a surf hardware system that steps beyond the norm and brings together long sought after functionality to the travel obsessed sport of surfing.

Each product has been specifically designed to increase surf travel performance and protection, minimize hassle and lighten the load for the travelling surfer in ways not before seen. What's more, while each product delivers in it's own right, the products have also been designed to interact and function together as a system, increasing flexibility and value for money.

Curve's idea of innovation doesn't mean just changing the colour, adding a logo or making something 2% lighter and 20% more expensive. Instead Curve reinvent the wheel. For example, the unique Curve Overstayer Multi Boardbag offers surfboard protection for up to 3 surfboards and yet weighs 50% less than traditional surfboard coffins. Because the Curve Overstayer has been designed with a patented 'Burrito' style closure, it can fit one surfboard as well as it fits three, which means a surfer can use the same boardbag for local day travel with one surfboard, as well as for international travel with 3 surfboards
