Riccardo Marca approached us mid-year to produce an instagram series following his life on tour as he competes as a professional windsurfer both on the European and World tours. We decided on an 8 part series, check episode four here and the rest of the episodes in our ‘Riders’.
Episode 4 features Marca preparing in Fuerteventura before the first stage of the PWA World Tour.

Tow-in rocked the crowds today with an impressive show right by the beach. The EFPT tried hard to continue on with the double elimination early in the day, however it was not to be as the competition area was deemed just that bit too light for fair competition to take place.

Action, action, action as the conditions continue to provide. The double elimination continued on until the winds faded, giving way to an impressive night tow-in show. Watch our highlight reel as the rockstars of European windsurfing enjoyed a day, and night, in the limelight.

The girls are in town. Joining the final stop of the mens tour, the girls take part in their own European Championships. A dream year for the tour as the final stop offers yet more great conditions. Check our highlights from today’s action.

Olympus ran a competition during the final 2017 PWA World Tour even in Sylt whereby second place would be awarded a sponsorship deal based on the best judged video published on YouTube and produced by any rider during the event itself. The catch, you had to use the Olympus TOUGH Action camera that was provided to each competitor, the video had to contain an overlay of data that the GPS side of the camera records and there were certain hashtags that needed to be mentioned in the upload. This was our entry.

A short clip we produced for surfing and kitesurfing talent Alina Froschmeier. Shot throughout the summer through multiple locations it took a while to sort through the footage for this one. The effort was worth it as we are super happy with the outcome. What do you think? Leave a comment below.

Young kitesurfing talent David Froschmeier, 16, was on the lookout for new sponsors as he began to get more serious with his passion for the sport. Requiring equipment to be competitive at events the idea was to create a portfolio by way of video than the traditional PDF slideshow. This is Ep.2 (you can check Ep.1 on our Riders page).
