Awesome test session on the new mk3
In his 'spare time' our Team Rider Tom Buggy competes in the professional circuit, the Extreme Sailing Series. As well as being pretty good on the water, he also has some thoughts about the future of kiting off the back of what he's learnt in sailing. Check out this feature in Kiteworld Magazine. http://kiteworldmag.com/news/what-can-kit ing-learn-from-the-extreme-40s-sailing-s eries/
Just another day in the office! Team rider Tom Buggy goes head to head with the Land Rover Extreme 40 in Oman.
Great shot from yesterdays Virgin Kitesurfing Armada where 344 riders completed the 1 mile course from Hayling Island.
Find out more about the 'Hanno' Foil. Stable at both low and high speeds, the foil is ideal for learners but also has a great top speed to keep you challenged a lot longer then most intro foils. #Rideofalifetime http://www.carbon6ix.com/#!hydrofoil/cyti

Where ever you are in the world this weekend, if you are out on the water we would love to hear from you! Post your pics and let us know what you're up too! Here's a little inspiration for you - a lot of folks are touting this as the best GoPro clip ever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8vHmlM5z OY#t=80
Worth a read. Damien LeRoy, gives the scoop on foil boards, light wind and downwind riding. "A foil board is the fastest thing around a race course hands down. Foils will take over everything."

We think some Carbon 6ix product testing is needed at a few of these places!!
Accuracy is everything! With many of our team being riders we know what we want. © Nathan Russell Photography
