Survived my Stag

Sunday 28th June


Thanks to everyone who turned up for my stag. I had a great night . Started with a Chinese and then over to Joe mays in Skerries for a drink or two. Tom Lotocki introduced me to the art of flaming sambuca. I had to hold sambuca in my mouth and make sure my lips where dry so they wouldn't catch fire as Tom lit it up! Crazy Pol! We then moved on to Shags nightclub for a bop and more devil juice. Finished the night with a swim at four this morning at the north beach. Great night!

Flow Style

Friday 26 June

Not much wind in Dublin at the moment. Cant really complain as the temp is way up this week with just enough wind for light wind freestyle or 'Flow style' as Ceasar Finies is calling it these days. He certainly does flow.

If you haven't seen him yet check his style out here.

Recycled Tiga Wave Board

Monday 22nd June

I spent the evening making a garden bench from an old Tiga wave board that a friend of mine was dumping. Turned out nice.

Island Fun

Sunday 14th June

Yesterday Tom, Oisin and Myself scored another freestyle session at the island. Oisin packed his camera in a ruck sack and managed to keep it dry on the way over. Anyway it was a fun session while the sea breeze lasted.

Today I Rest

Tuesday 9th June

I hope everyone had a good weekend of windsurfing. I know the speed boys did at the burrow. Oisin had a nice freestyle session there yesterday with good reports. I got home from town a bit later yesterday, and so sailed closer to home at skerries on 5.7 I'm feeling tired today after four days of sailing, so in a way I'm happy its not windy!

Nice Session at Skerries

Friday 5th June

Sailed today at Skerries with Tom, Megan and Oisin. We sailed on 5.0 Tom and Megan rigged 4.7 Nice session. Theres plenty of variety sailing at the south beach in Skerries. The sand banks connected to the islands provide flat water areas for freestyle and you have waves on the way out for jumping etc. Also the water is nice and warm now after our mini heat wave. Looks like more North East wind tomorrow at Costa Del Skerries...and rain!

See ya there,

No Wet Suit Needed in Ireland!!

Monday 1st June

Another super day. Went for a light wind freestyle session at Malahide. Tested the water and decided to give the wetsuit a rest. The water felt warmer than the air temperature! That's a first for Malahide. Anyway I managed to pull something in my shoulder from trying a jiz. Think I need to do some yoga before i try that again.
