Green Island, Antigua 12th Feb 2011

We've just travelled a few hours up the coast to Green Island just off the coast of Antigua. Pretty lumpy sail up here with some squalls coming through and a small swell running head on too.
The Zenith Ocean Voyages cat The Meercat is achored litterally right next to the spot although we will be launching off the back of the yacht anyway.
The kite spot here is a real small stretch of sand but once launched there is a huge bay of flat clear blue cystal water to play on. The wind is a little light at the moment (15knots) but there are still about 4-5 people out playing.
There is a school here 40Knots.net that operates here and wow what a place to run a school. All the teaching is done from the ribs following the students....very nice.

Zenith Ocean Voyages

Blast are super stoked to have hooked up big time with the guys at Zenith Ocean Voyages. I will be spending a month Teaching (and lots of scubbing the decks so I've been told) from next month.

I met the owners Ged and Susy a few years back while kitesurfing abroard and have watched them work hard ever since to start there new venture together. This is not just a dream it truly is a passion and bloody hard graft too. Ged has already worked on Charter Yachts for many years and they are both super keen kitesurfers too.

I will post up here and on our blog updates whenever I can get wifi. It's planned that we will be in some wavespots during the trip.

They also have a planned visit for Naish Pro rider and photog to be with us for a week too so it will be cool to report on this from an regular kitesurfers point of view. No idea yet who this will be.

Exciting times at Blast Kiteboarding....................

BOOM!
