Equipment try out / Inventoriaus bandymas

Hi guys,
I first tried out my new equipment for this season: 10,7 Severne Reflex III and Starboard 167 wide.
Conditions were light - very light around 5-10knots and almost flat water.

Impression:

Board
When the boards starts planning it goes fantastic - a lot of power from the fin, very fast and loose. I can push a very good angle and still maintain speed. But there are two problems: the board is very sluggish and very hard to get planning - of course during the winter I have forgotten how to pump, but still I expected something easier. The second problem is maneuvers - tacks and gybes. The board's wide tail really doesn't helps here. All in all I'll need hell lot of practice to get used to this board.

Windsurfing 2011

Hi guys, 
How are you? I have been sitting at home lately, due to an stupid illness and had nothing to do. My dad suggested me making some movie (Thanks for idea). So I sat down, took the best material form the last season I had and in my opinion created the best movie I have ever made - I like it very much.
In this movie you will see: snorkeling in Croatia, training in Nida, Central European championship in Croatia and finally winter windsurfing at home, in Kaunas. 
I hope you will enjoy it and share it to your friends.
