The Zone Squad Photo Diary

2007

Connor was lucky enough to get to Jamie Knox's in Ireland to continue his coaching programme with Jem Hall. This time Waves were on the agenda...To see the photo album of the trip then click HERE, in the meantime here are a few photo's from the week.

Day one, chop hopping with Jem Hall

practicing gybes

Connor borrowed Jem's RRD Twin Tip as often as he could

practicing Donkey Kicks

The wind got stronger as the week progressed

First real wave riding experience

this is how big the waves got on the last day...


Weymouth was this years venue for the Squad training and by all accounts everyone had a good time... These are Ian's photos from the boat to prove you all worked hard as well!!! If you want to read Ian's comments then many of these photo's are on the powerpoint presentation you can access on the Weymouth Feedback page

and here at last are some photo's of Lindsay...

this one is entitled ''me2''

Pumping hard to beat them boys!

''me and Nick battling it out''

''at T15, Woohoo! Came out on top! ''

2006

It is only fitting that the first photos are of Ian.

Everyone is used to seeing him (and the other coaches) sitting in their ribs, wrapped up in warm clothes, shouting and blowing whistles.

But just in case you ever doubted it...Ian can windsurf, and actually he's rather good...

who said only kite surfers get air time!!

...more air time, no rig required...

West Kirby, in December

Vulcan, after Vulcan, after Vulcan...


George had a particularly good year.

He started to dominate the front of the fleet, so 2007 looks like it's going to be a tough year...for everyone else to beat him...

...storming in to 3rd place at Derwent Water in the UKWA Inland series

crowd pleasing performance in Spain

holding on for dear life, in 60+ mph gusts at the Youth & Masters

Race training at West Pennine in the cold of November


Harriet also had a strong year

2006 was her second year in the West Zone Squad and combined with a lot of input from Mark Kay the results just continued to improve throughout the year.

serious speed downwind at West Pennine Windsurfing Club

Harriet at her secret training spot in South West Scotland

Scottish winds are great for speed sailing

A great shot of Harriet en route for the Isle of Man


Nikki's results are getting better and better

with great light and strong wind skills, Nikki is one to watch and after her secret training programme over the winter will be a fleet leader in 2007

Nikki working hard for the Bosworth Bullets in the T15 Champions Cup

Secret winter training

Racing at Blithfield

More secret training...

High Water at Rutland

even more secret training
