after more than 10 years with Naish, I have decided to part ways and am joining the North Kiteboarding Team. Here's a sneak peak at some of my new 2011 North Gear! Looking forward to getting on the water with it.

Good mike, looking forward to the season. Kids are a little older now, so hoping for some more water time! Gotta dust off the cob webs and get in shape for Mambo.

Thanks Beave, Nothing like a change every 10 years or so!

Tobes, yes it is a Power Balance Band. I wear one 24/7, works for me! How you been?

Looking forward to catching up with all at Mambo this year, looking to be a big one (as usual).

Geez JB is copping it for a bit of (mild) pimping, the likes of which is seen often on SB.

Hey JB, pity you aren't leaving SS to surf your popularity, instead of dishing red thumbs half the blokes on this thread would be lining up to boof ya.

LOL! Is this a joke or did some pretty Sydney boy actually go down to the beach and get photos taken of himself with new gear doing zoolander style 'blue steel' poses?!?

I thought you had to be able to turn left to be a pro?

Seriously though, you are cool, can I bat over you?

Hey Kav, Katie is coming, hopefully no kids though! Looking forward to a catch up/Beer(s).

Blue steel, Gold

I really love the energy in this forum, I've missed it.

If it feels good, do it.
All sweet here, lots of Dad action, not enough kite action, but that's mostly huey's fault this year.
Look forward to seeing you dominate the dancefloor @Mambo. I'll be out the back with a jug of coopers.

This is true, but it's all about the context. If he had posted a picture of himself smiling with all the new gear and said something like:
"Hey guys i've signed with North, if you see me down the beach come say hi and i'll give you a try of the new range, p.s. My powerband doesn't work"

It would be all green thumbs. Guaranteed.
Think about it.

"Hey guys i've signed with North, if you see me down the beach come say hi and i'll give you a try of the new range, p.s. My powerband is awesome, have a try!"

Thanks for your input Wishy, And those that know me know I'm always available to talk gear and lend stuff out. Smiling is not my strong point, it normally comes on at about 8pm after some ale's.

Tobes, yer might be a little less dance floor action this year, not as flexible as I once was! But I say that every year.
