Ever wonder why the British Isles continually father some of the finest wave sailors on the planet? Lineage of this calibre isn’t born out of warm water and tropical beaches, it’s forged from the harsh brutality of Atlantic swells, battering low pressures and unforgiving, isolated slabs.

Littered with world class reefs and beach breaks, we blow the lid on what the British Isles really have to offer – Introducing The 2013 UK Windsurfing Calendar.

Showcasing 13 awe inspiring images from windsurfing’s homeland, shot by the lens of John Carter and digitally printed onto super heavy weight paper. The UK’s never looked so good, nor has your wall.

Here’s some recent Hookipa video action from last Monday. This is action from the first shift of the day featuring Skyler Haywood, Kai Lenny, Josh Stone and Mark Angulo. Nothing epic as far as wave size goes – mostly head-high, occasionally bigger, but these guys were out having fun nonetheless. There’s a lot of talk lately about Mark Angulo’s Mutant. You can see another example of one that he lands near the end of the video.
