hope you are all well and getting in some ocean realignment and keeping those fitness fires burning. I have been howling at the moon and consulting witch doctors to get it to blow in the UK, and across Europe, during my time at home so lets hope this bears fruit for you.

This blog is a brief heads up to say that Moulay served up a big helping of Magic as we were blessed with 4 - 6 days of wind and waves per week. Both my crews really charged hard and were seriously up for a lot of fun and to move on up in jumps, rides and rotations. I had an argument with my boom and lost and so got 2 stitches in my face but on the plus side I did enjoy re-learning how to cheese roll, and carried on with my action plan of jumping higher and hitting the lip later (er or it hitting me) .... Huge respect and thanks to both weeks of clients and please may they remember to shout 'BOOM' every time they hit the lip : )

I would also like to show you the pics from the trip and thank Clive Boden for his pics and videoing (to appear in a video later in the year). Plus I would like to highlight future clinics that are avaialble to book; Moulay 2014 is confirmed as taking place on May 1 - 15, and whilst we are here Marsa Alam, Egypt is on March 5th and 12th for 2014.

I sincerely hope we are all loving the joys of spring. People always say to me "will you always live mainly in England?" and I say a resounding yes. I love to have a base where I can see my family and friends and I love many factors about living in Southsea; such as the changing of the seasons, and in some sort of mascohistic way the will it won't it frustration of just when the wind and / or waves will appear and let us enjoy them to the max, but then I think all windies have to love this in some way or they will quit our great sport.

I am reflecting on this after getting back from Marvellous Marsa in late March and have really enjoyed spending about 6 weeks at home hammering the office work, going ape in the gym and getting so excited every time I can get out for a sail, and of course seeing family and friends and enjoying the odd refreshment or 2 .. steady now. The beauty of seasons and the changing of the temps can be crazy this time of year, a few Sundays back I was getting 'Ice Cream (freezing hands)' whilst out on my Fire move and 6.5 cheetah and then 5 days later it was like summer .. 3.2 suit, no boots and totally cozy. Now the salesman in me would say you can remove some of the randomness and frustration of our Northern European wind cycles by booking on an overseas coaching holiday right now, and this is strongly advised as yes, you guessed what I would say next, they are selling out fast!!

<b>Perfect Punta San Carlos in Beautiful Baja</b>
I will let the <a href="https://vimeo.com/63611873">fab new video from Clive 'El Toro' Boden</a> give you an idea of the joy that awaits here. 4 places left on my second coaching week there from August 17 to 24.

<b>Magnificent Mauritius</b>
This is now booking steadily and offers a fantastic hotel in a stunning location with world class sailing over a variety of water states from flat water, to bump n jump, to small waves and then the piece de resistance of pure down the line joy on the outer reef at Manawa. The Mauritius coaching holiday is great for working on a range of skills from gybes to jumps, to rides and tricks. It is also fab for bringing non sailing partners, or water babies who wish to learn or improve in windsurfing, kiting (gulp) or SUPing.
It is that time of year where a lot of the competitions are taking place both nationally and internationally. The PWA (professional windsurfers association) have already kicked off with their freestyle event in Austria and they got wind and a result. If you have some available screen time it can be quite interesting to watch the live feed over on the PWA site, hear the commentary and watch the live ticker of updated results, they have some a long way in this area and are to be strongly applauded. Playing now is the PWA slalom in Korea and as the first slalom event of the year I will be definitely flying the flag for my RRD team mates, Antoine Albeau and Julien Quentel (the french flyers), the huge character of Finian Maynard and our new Israel Importer for RRD, Arnon 'hands like dinner plates' Dagan.
If you fancy a bit more low key racing and to support a fantastic event then look no further than this years National Watersports Festival (NWF) held at Hayling Island on August 30 - Sept 1. This event is organised by the tireless and hugely inspirational Allan Cross and sees people come together from all over the UK, and Europe too, to race, have fun, socialise and support the joy that is watersports. Next up for GB and Ireland is the wave comps, courtesy of the BWA (British Wavesailing Assoc.) kicking off in Rhosneigr on 17-19 May and then they race across to Brandon Bay, Ireland for the next event. Competition is for all levels from first timers, to ladies to juniors, to amateurs to masters and finally to pros, get involved.
Marvellous Marsa, way back in March, was fantastic and this resort grows on both my clients and I every year. The sailing area is fantastic with it's variety of water states and huge open spaces, the centre and the hotel have a very chilled vibe and I would say that the staff in centre are amongst the best in the world so a huge thanks to Ivan, Snezha, Mahmoud and Abdel Munsef. My crew of rippers on both weeks were on fine form and worked incredibly hard to improve, and drink all the rum on party nights, and they all bonded so well and the camaraderie was huge as clients from all over Europe came together to take their sailing to a new level. However, they did not embrace my no harness challenge, (pics on Facebook) with the exception of Felix Koster who took it head on by completing 10 reaches with no harness with tacks, 360 attempts and gybes interspersed. He did this as a bit of a photo shoot fun but it still inspired me to go and have some of this for myself and I nailed 12 reaches with body drags, 360s and duck gybes thrown in for good measure, using the Firemove made it a whole lot easier of course. So this year please aim to do at least 2 reaches without a harness on and planing in the straps and then build from that, it is great for your technique and your fitness, feels amazing and is a real eye opener!!
Right then I better get my toys and speedos together as my Moulay, Morocco wave camps await. I am really looking forward to bonding even more with my RRD wave cult quads and Ezzy Elites as I can honestly honestly say they (and my new fitness regime) have really allowed me to improve and develop all aspects of my sailing. Let the carnage begin as my wave rippers get their first rides, bash some lips, jump higher and I'm sure their will be a few banging out there first forwards : )

I am lucky enough to be currently in the last week of a 2 month training, testing and time out trip to Cape Town, South Africa so I will be reflecting on this throughout, as well as highlighting any current news on clinics and action coming up. The sharks have not got me yet but I have had some great crashes and had an opportunity to break out my arm bands during numerous swims to find my kit, paddle, Sup etc.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdjYISuaKX7BOsIebelTNVb40xxagd6ESZD3vZ3az58iV_gi6B7an8FdUilIihBKhPAy0umKeM7W4Uqq8Q9zlILKQudMctteEE1J8YMzKEcEvQXKzfn9azJ6Rkr1CD-RMNoV42GmCT5AY/s1600/BIGsunday+016-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" ><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdjYISuaKX7BOsIebelTNVb40xxagd6ESZD3vZ3az58iV_gi6B7an8FdUilIihBKhPAy0umKeM7W4Uqq8Q9zlILKQudMctteEE1J8YMzKEcEvQXKzfn9azJ6Rkr1CD-RMNoV42GmCT5AY/s320/BIGsunday+016-2.jpg" /></a>

<b>CLINIC NEWS: </b>
<a href="http://www.jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_greece.asp">Perfect Prasonisi, Reliable Rhodes</a> which over 10 years and around 40 clinics has averaged 4 - 5 days a week of planing conditions and is now booking up steadily. New for 2013, in Rhodes, is my Female Focussed clinic, called Jem's Jewels, where I will be assisted by a female co - coach, Rachel Tucker and their will be a set amount of places for ladies only, so as to ensure a great learning environment and to give you the opportunity to share rooms and keep your costs down.

Next up for me I am kicking off my 2013 coaching season with my regular trip to Marsa Alam, Egypt for 2 weeks of peformance boosting. I will be taking the New Ezzy Legacy and Tiger out with to test and tune so I will feedback on these after the trip. <a href="http://www.2xs.co.uk/news/article.asp?newsid=251">The 2xs posse have already posted a review on the Legacy</a> which is billed as 'A high performance wave and freeride collection that delivers awesome performance for more budget-minded customers.'

My mission to South Africa started well with Nick Coleman and his lovely posse hosting a fantastic New Years Eve Braii (BBQ) so a big thanks to all of them. Upon reflection Cape Town has been, in a word, amazing. January was windy for so many days in a row that I could not even keep track. These days were gratefully received as we were testing, shooting and filming new and existing products from RRD and Ezzy and it was great to work alongside chief RRD sail designer, John Skye and the force that is Dave White, whom I am much indebted too for so many of these fine pics in this newsletter.

The merry RRD crew travelled up and down from the picturesque waves of Platboom at Cape Point to the flat waters of Langabaan in order to get the job done. Skye boy was giving me my regular bottom kicking, coaching, that I am happy to receive from him and about time as he is very much in debt to me. Whitey was in his element as he gave us both alot of abuse and banter throughout, whilst coming to terms with the challenging conditions on offer which I lovingly call Port Tack Punishment. Not that I mind the wind from the left but the waves are pretty challenging (closing out inside sand bars as an example) and the wind is damn gusty, that said it is awesome sailing and I love it here. The variety of sailing is just immense! You can catch up on more pics from this trip on the <a href="http://www.davewhite.me/news/2013/05-tablemountain/tablemountain.html">mighty Whites site</a> or on my Facebook page

On arrival in Cape Town I was about the most unfit I have been in a long time, 3 weeks of chest infection will do that to a big baldy like me. Add to this I tweaked my ankle on the 2nd day and this trip has been all about getting back in the game, so with this in mind I have been hitting the gym hard, taking on board coaching tips/abuse from people and keeping a sailing log where I reflect on sessions and benefit from a bit of the old self coaching. These actions have all proved very beneficial and I now look forward to my next sessions with excitement and definitely with less of the fear that I had earlier in the trip! And I am inspired to keep upping the fitness too as it really helps my sailing and behaviour breeds behaviour.

February saw the wind die down a bit and an increase in the wind and waves hunting game that you have to play out here. This is when you rely on good forecasting, previous experience, texting other people on the road and
a bit of luck too. After a windless few hours at one wave beach I decided to head to Langabaan (inland sea sailing area) for some flat water sailing and so I whipped out the New Firestorm V2 120 from RRD and just loved hammering up and down super stacked on my 6.5 Cheetah, a change was most definitely as good as a break.

The last couple of weeks have allowed me to do a very tardy newsletter, get this blog up online and answer a lot of emails and, of course, entice many of you to join me on a coaching holiday in 2013. The Cape Doctor joined me for a few more last sessions so I went about my very own Hall's homework with passion, focus and commitment. And i m now in transit in the Uk before I head to Marsa Alam, Egypt.

After Egypt I will be spending a good amount of time back in the UK and will be hunting some good old home sailing and SUPing and then in May it is off to Morocco. Early June sees my first trip to Sweden beckon to visit the top crew of people at Surfers Paradise for a free tips and demo weekend.

PS It was also a great experience to meet Antoine Albeau in the flesh and what a professional and top man he is. Soooo fast on his X fires, all over it in the waves and ripping it up on his SUPs too. His passion to get in the water every day was very infectious.

too, for as long as possible. This newsletter is to give you a heads up
on what's going on, my latest toys and which clinics are booking and

<b>Rhodes reflection:</b><br />
I
am just back from my from 10th Anniversary of coaching clinics in
Rhodes and off to Brandon Bay, Ireland next week for my WaterPerson (WP)
clinics there. Prasonisi gave us a few days of very light winds until
the hairdryer came back on and gave us a fine send off, hats off to the
crew for being focussed, fun and most of all relaxed about the delay in
the wind, as we all know that there are no guarantees in life and even
in Rhodes the wind needs a breather sometimes. <br />

<b>Autumn action:</b><br />
Since
my return it has been great to get some autumn action in and enjoy
conditions around my local breaks, and also on a road trip down to
Camber Sands. Their is something about the colder weather, the rain and
changeable conditions that seems to excite and inspire me and yes there
is no place like home : ) <br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Toys, toys, toys - we love em:</b><br />
During
my ocean realignment on my home turf I have ahd the opportunity to
really get to know my new toys and I must say I am loving my new <a href="http://vimeo.com/43310858"><b>Ezzy Panther Elites</b></a> and the New<b> <a href="http://vimeo.com/robertoriccidesigns/videos">RRD Wave Cult Quads</a></b>. <br />
<br />
The
4 battened Elites are lighter, easier power and more neutral for rides,
gybes and style and really allow you to throttle the power on or off,
yet they are still strong and with a huge wind range and a massive top
end. <br />
<br />
Now that I have had some quality testing time on my New
Cult Quads, and in a range of conditions, I am happy to say that I have
them dialled in and am really appreciating their virtues. It is also
worth noting that not only am I enjoying them but so too are the people I
lend them to in order to test them and provide me with valuable
insight, same goes for the Elites. The feedback thus far on the RRD Cult
Quads is that they are earlier to plane, have more wind range and a
livelier / faster ride. Due to the narrower tails and increased tail
rocker, with more vee, they are looser and now with more drive too.
Yesterday saw my onshore wave riding performance definitely go up a
notch - I LOVE THEM! Get in touch if you want to discuss or test either
of the above. <br />

Ps
please page down and check out the pics of my Rhodes rippers and there
top demonstrations of sound technique. A special mention has to go to my
Cypriot friend, Melios, who has been windsurfing for only 4 months, and
with Beginner to Winner to guide him plus his focus, passion and energy
he was able to pull off his first carve gybes on the clinic. The crew
also helped him and he worked very very hard in the light winds on his
tacks, clew first sailing and gybe fundamentals .... and when the wind
came he stepped it up another gear - huge respect. <br />
<br />
<br />
He and his fellow Rhodes rippers are now ready to move there sailing forward as they all improved in several areas:<br />
They are better self coaches<br />
Tuning<br />
Posing in front of the camera - unleash a still camera and a windsurfers competency often doubles : ) <br />
Performing skill specific drills<br />
Target setting <br />
Work rate<br />
Focus<br />
Having fun by remembering the positives and knowing when less is more, ie. not oversailing <br />
<br />

The crew are on fine form and improving every day. Had a fab MTB ride this am and we are taking in surfing and SUPing before the wind kicks in for the afternoon ... all finished up with awesome food and lots of liquid refreshment<br />
<br />
You just don't know until you go - <a href="http://on.fb.me/ThLNKq" target="_blank">check some Pics out </a><br />
<br />
Loving my new Ezzy Elites of 4 battened joy too.<br />

Lastly, if you fancy jumping on a coaching clinic and enjoying a fab holiday whilst improving amongst like minded people then join me in <a href="http://www.jemhall.com/clinics.asp" target="_blank">Rhodes this September or Jeri, Brazil in November. </a><br />

<br />
I have just returned from 3 weeks of clinics in <a href="http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.491031447590082.127363.100000496937026&type=1" target="_blank">reliable Rhodes</a>. We enjoyed great wind wiht more planing days than I can remember and lots of fun and ripping sailors who have been moving on up in all areas of windsurfing from stance to first carve gybes, tacks to jumps, duck gybes to 360s. Thought I would send you some pics I just got from one of big windy days on last months <a href="http://www.oceansource.net/moulay/clinics_jem_hall.asp">Moulay, Morrocco</a> clinic, courtesy of Clive 'El Toro' Boden. We had logo high waves and I was very overpowered on 4.2 and 83 Quad, whilst my main man Tony Ford was on 3.7 and Mark Pezza joined the Moroccan air force for the day with his big jumps. Bookings for May 2013 will start in September 2012 and pre - bookings are already very high ... we love Marvelous Moulay, check the <a href="https://vimeo.com/44921576" target="_blank">video here</a> <br />

BRIEF CLINIC NEWS:<br />
<br />
<br />
If you fancy wind, warmth & good times join me for some top class coaching to give your gybes, stunts, stance and freestyle a boost in Prasonisi, Rhodes this June. Few spaces available on the weeks of June 13, 20 and 27th. More details on <a href="http://www.jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_greece.asp">Rhodes in June</a><a href="http://www.jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_greece.asp"> and September. </a><br />
<br />
<br />
Brazil price and logistics are being rijigged now due to a flight change and it will now be <a href="http://www.jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_brazil.asp"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Jeri only</span></a> to bring the costs down. The twin centre option from last year added an additional transfer and all the fun of the beach buggy trip but increases the trip by a day and adds further costs, albeit huge fun and very much enjoyed by one and all in 2011 : ) Flying out on Nov 27th and back on Dec 8th. <br />
<br />
When I get the chance I will give you a rundown on the action from Marvelous Moulay. In the meantime, enjoy the wind and yourself - 'it's later than you think.'<br />
<br />
<br />
Carpe Diem, <br />
<br />

Ps thanks to Dave White for filming and editing the movies and for his glorious pics, with a few ones of the, soon to be released, New Wave Cult Quads sneaking in there. <br />

You might have noticed me on the RRD sail in the mast mount pic, fear not I'm still Ezzy through and through but got to sail and test some other brands and also what our valued retailers will be selling. Whitey will be waxing lyrical about the RRD sails and you can catch him too at the H20 Poole demo this weekend : )Jem Hallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13834332854631686093noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5278204025640644370.post-90840316631528703722012-05-07T14:40:00.001+01:002012-05-07T14:42:53.533+01:00Marvelous Marsa & latest newsI hope this update finds you as excited as I am about some warmer and windier weather on the horizon. Some of you will be thinking about getting out for your first session of the northern hemisphere spring and wondering if it is warm enough? Well, the sea temps are on the up, the days are longer and the wind has finally returned and like you I am praying for a relatively warmer and most definitely windy weekend for you to go out and get your sea legs back - so please get your kit ready, watch the forecasts and lets get you good old ocean realignment. <br />
<br />
<br />
This newsletter will highlight some upcoming UK events I have, highlight latest clinic availability, give you the report on my recent clinic to Marsa Alam and I will slip in lots of other juicy links and info too. <br />
<br />
<br />
As I am enjoying some time at home on the south coast of the UK I arranged 2 local events; <br />
<br />
1. On Thursday April April 26th I showed off all the <a href="http://boards.mpora.com/news/all-the-toys-jem-hall.html">RRD / Ezzy toys at Andy Biggs Watersports</a> on <a href="http://www.andybiggs.co.uk/home">Hayling Island</a>, 02392 467755. I will also be talking kit set ups and handing out some top technique tips and give you a chance to ask me any questions you wish to ask. <br />
2. I arranged on Friday April 27th a <a href="http://www.x-train.co.uk/tuition/windsurfing-courses-lessons/pro-clinics/">jump & loop day at West Wittering through X train / 2XS</a> . It is on a rollover, so if it is windy will run - but alas none came - next opportunity is July now, phone 01243 513077 to book up. <br />
<br />
<br />
CLINICS:<br />
<br />

March 2012 saw me return to <a href="http://www.jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_marsa_alam.asp">Marvelous Marsa Alam</a> after my inaugural visit in 2011 and my clients and I were not disappointed, we had 4 - 5 days planing on week one and it was full power on week 2 including one windy onshore day which was great for jumping, fun and frolics. Hats off to both groups as they both worked hard and stepped up their sailing. Both weeks saw the coveted 'most improved sailor' prize go to the relatively lower ability members of the clinic, Greg Brown worked incredibly hard and was unrecognisable from the chap in the rescue boat on the first 2 days to a full speed flying machine by day 6. In week 2 Ian 'EastBourne Massive' G. improved steadily every day and was fully working on his gybes by the end of the week, while trying to destroy my beloved RRD FSW 102 V2 : ) <br />

I would like to mention that in week one I broke my record for amount of different nationalities on a clinic, with the total being 8, hailing from Holland, Finland, French Canada, Italy, Ireland, Greece, Bermuda and the UK, of course. The centre there is very friendly and quiet, the sailing area vast and uncrowded, with flat water inside, chop and then swell outside and the food is damn fine. We will be back in March 2013 and if you want to join us then book early as this will have a very high amount of returning rippers. <br />

PRODUCT PLUGS<br />
<br />
Ah yes, you knew these were coming, well RRD have come out with a mighty fine <a href="http://vimeo.com/40664449">Inflatable SUP</a> for those of you that can't store these rather large items and want a very ease to use and performance product. <br />
<br />
<br />
Next up my <a href="http://vimeo.com/23460604">RRD FireMove 110</a> continues to blow both my clients and I away, the best I can say about this board is that after people sail it they say, I want one! It planes sooo damn early, goes quick and is easy to sail and gybes like a dream, and I can 360 and loop it too : ) <br />
<br />
<br />
Lastly, I got the chance to test and tune the <a href="http://www.ezzy.com/sails/2012-sails/ezzy-cheetah/">Ezzy Cheetah 6.5</a> out in Egypt and found it lighter and faster then the previous Freeride incarnations, yet still with the same massive wind range and fabulous build quality and it sets on a 430 mast - sweet. Check out the attached advert!<br />
<br />
COMING UP<br />
I am off to taste and enjoy the <a href="http://www.oceansource.net/moulay/clinics_jem_hall.asp">Magic of Moulay, Morocco</a> with Oceansource.net on my 2 wave clinics there, it will be full carnage as people move on up in jumps, rides and loops of all kinds - can't wait !! <br />
<br />
Goodbye from me and if you don't go then you won't know, <br />
Enjoy, <br />
<br />

Cape Town was fab, hard sailing and plenty of it and an opportunity for me to train, test and enjoy some time out. Once again Virgin Atlantic Airways were amazing, great flight and seats and such a <a href="http://www.virgin-atlantic.com/gb/en/travel-information/baggage/sports-equipment.html" target="_blank">fab sporting goods baggage policy</a> - please consider them for a whole myriad of destinations. It was great to do comprehensive testing with John Skye, team mate and top chum, on some of our potential RRD joy toys and educate our new man Dave White on the comprehensive and current RRD goodness. <br />
<br />
Sorry about the lack of action pics but it was not that sort of trip and thanks to Whitey for the pics and to Debbie Kennedy for the 'cheesy' sunset pic. <br />

<br />
Windsurfing is always a very small world and it was great to see my old test team boss and mate, Ian Leonard, out in Cape Town and to enjoy some good sailing with him, the odd beer and experience his fine tennis coaching too. <br />
<br />
Feb and early March see me rooted to my desk as I look to get some much needed office work done and to entice you fine people to book some clinics as well. I hope to see you on the water for a windsurf, when it warms up, and maybe on the south coast for a SUP when the swell comes in. The next trip for me is <a href="http://www.jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_marsa_alam.asp">Marsa Alam, Egypt</a> in March which, I believe, is now full -I offer a HUGE HUGE THANKS for booking. <br />
<br />
In the meantime Spring is on the way and the 3 Fs will see you through the next season with both enjoyment and progression. Therefore, up your FITNESS, review and visualise what to FOCUS on and when you get in the water ensure your FUNDAMENTALS are ripping. <br />
<br />
Focus, believe and ENJOY, <br />
<br />

Rip it up and please when you want to make a change to your sailing book up a clinic soon, <a href="http://www.jemhall.com/clinics.asp">2012 windsurf coaching clinics</a> are selling fast. Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think.<br />

What a difference some winds makes, just had 3 great days sailing with friends and catching up with customers with everyone loving it. Whilst I was out in Reliable Rhodes, for June and and early July, it was fantastic to hear of windy reports from home as we also scored many great days over there too. This newsletter is just to say hi and that i will update you on Rhodes in the next one and that I will now inevitably inform you of the <span style="font-weight: bold;">latest availability </span>on my windsurf coaching clinics. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">2011 Last Orders please:</span><br />
<br />
The wind, warmth, waves and golden joy of both <a href="http://www.jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_mauritius.asp">Mauritius</a> (<span style="font-weight: bold;">One Last place!)</span> and the <a href="http://www.jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_brazil.asp">Brazil combo clinic</a> (Limited) are also open for bookings too, but the spaces will inevitably sell out soon. These are your last chances for 2011 as Psc, Baja, Rhodes in September and Ireland are sold out : )<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhonA4DSFEYi64CwV7CjP2yOLrlcivKGaEC3_Gkn-jsqWIRxnpJexvzTZJ72DCXsb05UDE7I87EBLN1url_Pyt6O2PVAU0c9_lv9pkMXIZWmLNOqwEhkQERpSIL7_GQ3ZMZemr547WKK_k/s1600/rhodesjune15posse11.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhonA4DSFEYi64CwV7CjP2yOLrlcivKGaEC3_Gkn-jsqWIRxnpJexvzTZJ72DCXsb05UDE7I87EBLN1url_Pyt6O2PVAU0c9_lv9pkMXIZWmLNOqwEhkQERpSIL7_GQ3ZMZemr547WKK_k/s320/rhodesjune15posse11.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-weight: bold;">2012 - Now Booking</span>:<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_marsa_alam.asp">Marvelous Marsa Alam in March</a>, is already seeing alot of business so take the opportunity to escape the winter and get a pre season tune up. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_greece.asp">Reliable Rhodes in June</a> is already booking up with many of my 2010 and 2011 customers already signing up which is great news. <br />
<br />
For both clinics book with <a href="mailto:info@sportif.travel">Sportif Travel</a> please, get in touch with <a href="mailto:jem@jemhall.com">me</a> to check your ability and aspirations. <br />
<br />
<br />
Lastly, <a href="http://www.oceansource.net/moulay/clinics_jem_hall.asp">Moulay, 'pure deep wave joy,'</a> is almost sold out and so <a href="mailto:jem@jemhall.com">I am taking applications</a> for the last few places. FYI - Both this and <a href="http://www.jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_baja_california.asp">Punta San Carlos, Baja, Mexico</a> often sell out with pre registration and very early bookings<br />
<br />
Get involved and take action NOW to move your windsurfing forward and, of course, enjoy yourself, it's later than you think. <br />

Ps If you fancy an amazing medium wind gybing machine and a breath of freemove / ride fresh air then please consider the RRD FireMove range, wide but thin depth and rails so it planes early, goes fast and gybes like a dream. Great test <a href="http://windsurfingmag.com/gear/2011/04/04/2011-rrd-firemove-110/">here</a> and the stats in this test are wrong the 110 is 236 x 75cms and feels like 120 litres. <br />

Their has been wind kicking around all week back in the UK and it was great to get some time out there after my 2 weeks of coaching in Moulay, Morocco. There is also some big wind forecast for the coming week which has got one and all licking their lips. <br />

<br />
Moulay was damn fine with Lawamas being fantastic hosts and the conditions stepping up with the goods, giving us both riding and jumping pure deep joy. Week 1 went off and week 2 was a bit windless as even the most reliable places can go offline sometime, still the group charged hard on SUPs & surfboards and all saw the potential and would re book. I will do a full report on this soon. <br />

RRD NEWS<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
The brand spanking new <a href="http://www.2xs.co.uk/news/article.asp?newsid=183">RRD wave cult contest</a> is now in the country and in stock at 2XS so take a look and consider this fantastic all round quad fin wave board in a lighter construction.<br />
<br />
<br />
Both Boards and Windsurf Magazines have been extolling the virtues of <a href="http://www.robertoriccidesigns.com/equipment/index.php/windsurfing.html">RRDs new FireStorm</a> (fast freeride) boards and I got out on it for some Sarf coast testing this week. It is faster than the Fireride (classic freeride) and easier to sale than the blisteringly quick FireRace (free race) yet is comfy and gybes fantastically as our boards are well known for. I will be using it for coaching on my next clinic to Rhodes in June. <br />
<br />
<br />
Lastly, if you wish to have an early planing board with a wide plan shape yet thin rails then look at the <a href="http://www.robertoriccidesigns.com/equipment/index.php/windsurfing.html">NEW RRD FireMove</a>, which bridges the gap between our highly acclaimed FSW and Fireride boards, and is a Freemove board. It is great for planing early, top end speed and is super responsive for gybes and jumps, for a board of its size. It planes like a big board but sails like a smaller one for carving and popping, featuring a length of 236 and volumes of 100, 110 and 120 and corresponding widths of 69, 75 and 80 cms. I will be using the 100 as a coaching board for bump n jump, blasting, carving, old school freestyle and looping. <br />
<br />
<br />
Enjoy spring and lets hope for more wind and waves and I look forward to seeing you on the beach or on a clinic. Thanks to those of you who have booked foe 2011, pre registered for 2012 and given me some referrals and promotion, I am really grateful for all this : ) <br />
<br />
<br />

Over and out from me, sail, live, love and enjoy with passion, <br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal">It has been a pretty hectic couple of months with lots of comings and goings as I have been to Cape Town and Austria so far this year. I got some good punishment and had a fantastic time on my snowboarding holiday with Sophie, who definitely enjoyed seeing me as an intermediate. Now that I have been home it has given me the chance to do some much needed office work including my ever so subtle marketing and sales to get you lovely people on my 2011 clinics. As promised I will now give you the report from, my winter training and testing venue, Cape Town. </div><div class="MsoNormal"></div><a name='more'></a><br />

Tony and I had last been here together back in ’04 when we scored some great wind. This was a good omen as we really got some great sailing in once again and enjoyed heaps of windy days with good swell. The last couple of years I have managed to get just enough sailing in by travelling around to be at the right spots at the right time armed with my local knowledge and the guidance of the oracle Phil Horrocks, Ben ‘party’ Proffit and Andrea ‘RRD tester’ Rosati. This year it was easier with a lot of the good conditions local to where we were staying, with Nick Coleman firstly and then Martin (centre manager in Rhodes) afterwards. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">The sailing was just right in the first week with about 6 days in a row and plenty of time to get dialled in on port tack. At home I mainly sail starboard and a lot of my venues are starboard tack too, so I really seek to benefit from training on my opportunity to improve side. As you all know there are no weaknesses merely opportunities, and the only limits placed on us are the limits we place on ourselves. By the end of the 6<sup>th</sup> day I was pretty much delirious as I staggered around the beach begging Tony not to make me sail again, and this was even with sailing focussed ‘hours of power’ fuelled by good food and hydration. Luckily a non-windy day came before we were back on...</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdnPokbNfOPE5OH0o2MlyuuvCieWmldAxQY74ojNwTOFYdCvDSXsfwBZIH4l5zfGQAf229z8ROPVm35E4kex6pICdvtqbS91ZDGHxmsVlLo0Gis9LarGjSA3Pc0mNZaLRN_R0BA1FqQDQ/s1600/jemcrash.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdnPokbNfOPE5OH0o2MlyuuvCieWmldAxQY74ojNwTOFYdCvDSXsfwBZIH4l5zfGQAf229z8ROPVm35E4kex6pICdvtqbS91ZDGHxmsVlLo0Gis9LarGjSA3Pc0mNZaLRN_R0BA1FqQDQ/s320/jemcrash.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal">With the second dose of wind the swell increased so we had to choose our beaches wisely. This coincided with RRD teammate, John Skye’s arrival along with his ripping fiancé Nayra. The head man and legend at RRD, Roberto Ricci, called a photo shoot at Scarborough point so we headed off there early doors the next day. I volunteered myself for video duty as I knew the RRD riders rarely get footage in these conditions and I knew they would have better sessions than me in the huge waves, gusty winds and constantly shifting peak. It is a true point break with a channel, of sorts, and huge chunks of ocean roaring in and breaking right off some gnarly rocks. Tony went out, true to form, following the rippers to be in the right spot and caught some good waves. When he eventually came in he was shattered from shaking so much in the nerve racking conditions and said that the memory of that day will stay with him for a long time! You can watch out for this footage on some new RRD videos and Skye boy’s next movies he will no doubt be making. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4VUoNfWPlld6hbLLS4_9AB-jg6HPaRkRrn4CrVrLBbQliHgh41tsgAF2dqeGabVNbZruTRmge-UXo08ZoCx3n8CXjHJQbsVpFMlKOzzFz5kObct9hPH5JYD1Sq3dan-g_hpa24oUW4O0/s1600/skyeTTnice.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4VUoNfWPlld6hbLLS4_9AB-jg6HPaRkRrn4CrVrLBbQliHgh41tsgAF2dqeGabVNbZruTRmge-UXo08ZoCx3n8CXjHJQbsVpFMlKOzzFz5kObct9hPH5JYD1Sq3dan-g_hpa24oUW4O0/s320/skyeTTnice.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">My trips to Cape Town really gave me the chance to get fully tuned and accustomed to as many of my RRD boards as possible and this time I really got to know all sizes of my<a href="http://www.robertoriccidesigns.com/equipment/index.php/windsurfing/wavecult-quad.html"> CULT Qu4ds (92, 83 and 75)</a> and my <a href="http://www.robertoriccidesigns.com/equipment/index.php/windsurfing/wavehardcore-quad.html">Hard Core Qu4d 84</a>. I benefitted from the extra control, drive and grip that the quads bestowed upon me, as Cape Town can get damn windy, choppy and gnarly. Another benefit was the improved upwind performance the quads gave me allied to the security that I could really push into my jumps due to the boards reliability and grip. I have put quite a few people on quads now and heard from many happy owners who are regular weekend warriors and so I am really happy that they work for both improving wavesailors and rippers.

</div><div class="MsoNormal">Whilst in Cape Town I get a chance to get my coaching from the pro crew out there and this year I was working on improving my wave riding and push loops. The beauty of windsurfing is that we can always set new challenges, whether they’re conditions, equipment led or just plain old stunts and moves. On quite a few days Tony and I had a ‘push loop off’ - doing as many as possible without killing ourselves and we each exchanged wins on separate days. There is nothing like your mates and peers inspiring you to step up and make a new move and of course receiving focussed guidance from a great coach too, just like on a <a href="http://www.jemhall.com/clinics.asp">coaching clinic PLUG PLUG. </a></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">In all we had a great time and I took some big hits, broke a bit of kit, improved my sailing and survived my swims without getting eaten. After a trip like that I am fully charged for this year and my port tack improvements even showed on the last sessions I had on my 3.5 down on the South coast. </div><div class="MsoNormal">The last few weeks I have scored some great SUP action at the <a href="http://www.2xs.co.uk/news/article.asp?newsid=179">Witterings</a> and Kimmeridge and am gagging for a few more big days with no wind to continue the momentum. </div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

As promised I am going to give you a peak at our wedding photos and give you the lowdown on how the day went. </div><div class="MsoNormal"> <br />
<a name='more'></a></div><div class="MsoNormal">Firstly, of course, a bit of promotion as you know I’m not shy on this …. </div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal">Your last chances for a boost this year are:</div><ul><li> My <a href="http://oceansource.net/moulay/clinics_jem_hall.asp">Re-scheduled clinic light trip to Moulay, Morocco</a> where I am offering daily part time coaching at this amazing wave venue, which has side shore wind and sweet waves. Getting out, jumping, looping, catching waves and riding will all be covered, this place is very consistent! I will be there from July 19 – 26 and bookings are through Oceansource.net </li>
</ul><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><ul><li><a href="http://jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_mauritius.asp">Marvellous Mauritius is now getting steady bookings for this September.</a> The clinic was bought forward to this date for more wind and waves and both the venue and hotel are world class, and you can now upgrade to the 5* Les Pavilions hotel should you so wish. I will be covering stance, better gybes, tacks, feasible freestyle, jumps, loops and wave riding. The venue has all water states from flat water to small waves to side off perfection and the hotel is great for non sailing partners and families. </li>
</ul><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal">I apologise for the pic heavy newsletter but I just got very excited about sharing them with you so please have a look through and enjoy them. People say getting married is the best day of your life and boy are they right. It was an amazing day with so many great people there to share it with. Sophie and I have to thank our awesome parents, and extended family for supporting us in putting it on. </div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal">It is quite a surreal experience, after the carnage of the stag weekend comes the realisation that you are about to fully commit and as we know this is what life is all about : ) My crew joined me the night before for a few drinks and we kicked off the next day with some lunges, squat thrusts and a jog, like you do. The morning was a bit of a blur and everyone was asking me, ‘are you nervous?’ which I was not but just excited beyond belief. The ceremony was great and Sophie looked absolutely stunning, and the registrar seemed to enjoy called me Jeromany Hall. </div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal">The wedding party then adjourned for plenty of fizzy and the obligatory photos before sitting down for dinner and then the dreaded speeches. Colin, my father in law went easy on me but Tony, my best man did not! Well, actually I will have to say that with all the pics and the great content it was, as many people have now told me, one of the best best mans speeches – ever. The first dance flew by and Sophie forgot our entire rehearsed synchronised freestyle dance routine. Now by this time everyone was pretty ‘refreshed’ so the dancing was starting to get pretty messy and there was a bit of rough and tumble. I can’t even count how many times I fell over. The DJs, Wedding smashers, were amazing and everyone danced the night away, enjoyed bundling me and even tested out the carpet for some dodgy break dancing. </div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal">The next day it was a yummy lunch at my parents in laws and then off to the Maldives for out honeymoon. Thanks to everyone for their kind donations to this and getting us there and to Sportif for organising it. We had a great honeymoon and no boardsports were partaken or work performed – the island was beautiful, food amazing and people friendly and we just loved the snorkelling. </div><div class="MsoNormal">A massive thank you to Barney from <a href="http://www.thefoundcollective.com/CONTACT_US.html">FND</a> for the pics and to the <a href="http://weddingsmashers.com/">Wedding Smashers</a> for their fantastic DJing. </div><div class="MsoNormal">After all those good times it was back to work which took me to the RRD conference in Tarifa where I got to check out what’s coming out soon, discuss our R and D plans and get out on some proposed shapes. The main intro for this year is out new wave boards in both Quad and Single fin and in the guise of the all-round master, the Cult and our riding master the Hard Core. I am very excited about the Quads as they give me the looseness of a twin with the grip of a single fin and with a bit more early planing and upwind ability thrown in for good measure. The Single fins are also updated and available for those of you who prefer them and want a grippier ride, even earlier planing or for stronger wind usage and occasional riding. Out in late July and I’ll send out some more pics then. </div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal">With this year selling out so quick I have been asked to release my 2011 dates earlier and I will be highlighting these in July including a new venue for March, which will be available for booking in July through Sportif. </div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal">Thanks everyone for their lovely emails, cards and messages with best wishes for our wedding and huge thanks for your support both in the past, present and future. I am off to Prasonisi, Rhodes tomorrow for 4 weeks of clinics and then off to Hunstanton for the <a href="http://boards.mpora.com/news/bsa-hunstanton-puts-slalom-silverware.html">Quayside demo weekend and slalom / freestyle comps on July 10 & 11.</a> </div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal">Passion, love and commitment, </div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div>JemEmilehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17395268447611226724noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5278204025640644370.post-27579280393693467912010-04-19T14:32:00.001+01:002010-12-23T15:44:05.918+00:00Last orders and stag w'endA very good morning to you and a belated happy Easter.

Cape of Joy: <br />
Back in Jan/Feb I had my usual sojourn to Cape Town and it was amazing. Thanks to martin Sellars for being the co-pilot and wave brother as we covered alot of miles and sailed everywhere. I got my first sail at Elands Bay and also climbed up Lions head which scared the s**t out of me but probably inspired me to re-learn how to push loop. <br />
<br />
It was great to hook up with Skyeboy and do some testing for RRD and of course hang out with Don Roberto Ricci himself. We were joined on many of the beaches by El Toro Clive Boden and Kyle McGinn who both put some video footage together on <a href="http://video.mpora.com/watch/b95Ao9QKt/">MPORA </a><br />
<br />
You can read the travel article by Sophie and I on Cape Town, called 2 Oceans - 2 sides, in the fantastic Boards mag March Edition and you can also now view my <a href="http://boards.mpora.com/how-to/wannabe-a-wavesailor-forwards.html">old wannabe wavesailor technique articles t</a>oo : ) <br />
<br />
<br />
EL TUR:<br />
After a busy month or so in the office it was off to El Tur for my first clinic of the year and it was very international in feel. Thanks to my Austrian, 2 Dutch, 4 Irish and 6 British peops for making it such a fab week and for working so hard. <br />
<br />
We had about 4 days of planing and 2 of light wind training which was perfect. First gybes were made, stances got faster but sorry boys the girls improved the most : ) <br />
<br />
Thanks to Phil, Dan and Danielle for being excellent hosts and for getting me some of the great pics you can see right here. <br />
<br />
Gareth also has some more pictures <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/gjhanley1/sets/72157623729919044/">here</a>. <br />
<br />
FLICKS<br />
Their are so many good movies on the old interweb now but for a bit of reflection check out <a href="http://video.mpora.com/watch/NZcCOejeU/">John Skye's movies</a> on Mpora and of course the <a href="http://video.mpora.com/watch/nRKaQxafQ/">loop movie</a> that he and I made, and for added inspiration <a href="http://video.mpora.com/watch/UjCCEeyxL/">El Toro's loop story</a> is pure class. If you are not gagging to loop after these then you never will be!!<br />
<br />
EVENTS: <br />
Not only do we have <a href="http://boards.mpora.com/news/national-windsurfing-week-2010-2.html">National windsurf week on May 1</a> - 9 but now we have <a href="http://boards.mpora.com/news/world-windsurfing-week-2010-nww-global.html">World Windsurf week</a>, so get involved and spread the love and joy of windsurfing far and wide please. <br />
<br />
May also sees the start of the Uk wave comps and a new dawn has come with the <a href="http://www.britishwavesailingassociation.com/">BWA</a> now in charge their has never been a better time to do your first amateur event. Its fun and you will learn loads and will it ever focus you! <br />
<br />
We have the <a href="http://www.nationalwindsurfingfestival.com/partners.php">National Windsurf festival</a> in September and I am proud to announce that I will be there so come down and have a chat and race a round a few buoys. Also throughout the year the<a href="http://ukwindsurfing.com/news/2010/0205_british-slalom-2010/"> BSA</a> are having lots of slalom events and with a big focus on fun races and masterblasters, alongside this their are now lots of local slalom clubs so get involved as going fast never went out of fashion. <br />
<br />
Well, I am now off to my stag weekend so wish me luck and if you see me in Wales somewhere naked and with no eyebrows do more than say 'bend your back leg.' My best man said 'no body gets out of here alive,' sounds ominous so I bid you Au revoir, hopefully. Sophie and I are getting married in May and we are very excited.<br />
<br />
Before the wedding I will be in <a href="http://oceansource.net/moulay/clinics_jem_hall.asp">Mouthwatering Moulay </a>for my first wave clinic there, cue wigs and Moroccan tea for our big night out. <br />
<br />
Ta Ta for now and a huge thanks to all of you for booking up past and present, this has been my fastest and biggest sales year ever for clinics and that is alot down to your support and word of mouth promotion. Keep this coming and it is great to see so many new customers from all around the globe. <br />

Passion, love and commitment, <br />

This is just a quick newsletter to keep you posted and say thanks to those of you who have supported me over the last year and to those of who have booked up for next year. <br />
<br />
CLINIC NEWS <br />
El Tur and Moulay are both sold out with long waiting lists.<br />
<a href="http://jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_greece.asp">Prasonisi, Rhodes</a> in June is selling very quick now<br />
<a href="http://jemhall.com/windsurfing_in_baja_california.asp">Punta San Carlos, Baja, Mexico</a> 'down the line' pure wave joy clinic is almost fully booked<br />
<br />
Check out the great footage from <span style="text-decoration: underline;"></span><a href="http://video.mpora.com/watch/wL3NAyfmu">BOARDS MAGS NEW MPORA Video site</a> of Graham Ezzy in Punta San, Carlos, Baja, Mexico (PSC/BAJA). <br />
<br />
UK ACTION<br />
wow - what a month November was, 3.5 to 4.7 weather on so many days and even windy at weekends - YAY! I was loving it, my Panthers and RRD wave twins were eating up the conditions and it was great to catch up with quite a few of you around the breaks. <br />
<br />
BRAZIL BECKONS<br />
Late November sees me jet off to Jeri, Brazil to get some pics and perform my now regular clinic there. This year Sophie joined me and for my sins, I took Dave White (Boards mag editor and all-round legend) along as my photographer, and it wa he spent alot of time ripping into both me and the clients and took some superb pics and also reflected on both <a href="http://www.davewhite.me/news/2009/51-welcometotheclub/welcometotheclub.html">Jeri</a> itself and the <a href="http://www.davewhite.me/news/2009/52-bootcamp/bootcamp.html">clinic</a> so please check out the links. I will cover more on Brazil in the next newsletter. The sail in the pics is the NEW Ezzy Panther 2 and it has all the usual Ezzy Panther attributes of stability, tuning flexibility, wind range and strength and is now also lighter and smoother thanks to the new white tri - laminate in the middle of the sail. <br />
<br />
SANTA<br />
Lots of people have been buying both WINNER TO WAVESAILOR and BEGINNER TO WINNER so a huge thanks for doing this either as a pressie to themselves, or as an investment in their progress, or as a present to others : ) <br />
<br />
FEEDBACK AND QUOTES<br />
A very enthusiastic person has started a <a href="http://boards.co.uk/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28802&PN=1">thread on my coaching</a> on the Boards forum so if you fancy posting on there then that can be your pressie to me and perhaps take the time to reflect on some of your favorite quotes of mine on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=517477263&ref=ts#/group.php?gid=30410574885&ref=ts">Facebook</a><br />
<br />
Whilst it is cold you can still run, swim, bike and hit the gym and the fitter you are the quicker you will progress and the more you will enjoy your sessions. Those of you who have booked clinics please do be as fit as humanly possible for them and get your hands tough (surgical spirit application works).<br />
Here is to a perfect 10 and I look forward to seeing and coaching you.<br />
<br />
Spread the love and feel the joy, <br />
