Moulay - went off

Hi, 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.

Coming up we have the NWF in late August (national watersports festival) with a whole of fun on offer and the opportunity to do some racing, party hard and check out all the water toys that are out there - get involved and I will see you there. Now you all know about how I rant and rave as to just how good the RRD Firemove is well their is now yet another fantastic review on this board in the June Issue of Windsurf Magazine on the RRD 130 Firemove so get a mag and check it out please. For you social media types can I ask that you follow me on twitter @jemhallcoach and please LIKE my new Jem Hall Coach facebook page - or I will feel all left out : (

Lastly, I am just back from a fab trip to Surfers Paradise in Varberg, Sweden which is well documented on my facebook pages and on their Blog. I was very well looked after and met alot of super friendly people in this meccca of watersports for Sweden, which is home to one of the biggest and best watersports shops in Scandinavia. Enjoy the Summer and live life with passion, Jem XX Just a few more pics - oh go on then : )

Off to Jeri and Autumn travels

Bom dia all,

I am furiously packing for my next clinic which is off to Jeri, Brazil for my annual sojourn to warm water, wind and waves (watch Whiteys Video from last year) with my merry bunch of rippers.  This newsletter is to give you a little nudge to book up for a clinic for next year, round up some news and wish you a good winter for sailing. 

Clinic News:

Marvelous Marsa Alam, Egypt is now receiving quite a few bookings so please book up before we sell out and come on down to take a break from Winter and get tuned up for your 2013 season on March 13th and 20th.

Perfect Prasonisi, Reliable Rhodes which over 10 years and around 40 clinics has averaged 4 - 5 days a week of planing conditions and is now taking bookings. New for 2013, in Rhodes, is my ladies clinic, called Jem's Jewels, where I will be assisted by a female co - coach, Rachel Tucker and we will be providing a supportive, inspiring and focussed environment where ladies will have the opportunity to not only enjoy a great holiday but also seriously improve their windsurfing.


The Mecca of Moulay, Morocco on May 9th and 16th is already taking a lot of bookings and we are ready to give you a fab holiday and an awesome waterperson (WP) / wavesailing experience, bookings are with Oceansource.net

Email me for more details on these clinics and to discuss your booking.


Now back in October we were very proud to announce that Antoine Albeau has given RRD it's first world title by winning the PWA slalom title for 2012 on his RRD X Fire slalom machines. Well the man knows no bounds and he has now smashed the speed record and gone over 50 Knots, this is an amazing feat! The previous link takes you to the fab new website for Windsurf magazine and I have an Interview coming out in the Jan/Feb issue out on Dec 23rd or so.

If we are talking magazines then Boards Mag currently has their huge winter annual wave issue which has loads of top articles, education and inspiration so treat yourself to a copy or subscribe.

After my Ireland wave clinic I had a dutch group join me in Ireland and they were a top bunch and had a right old time out in Brandon Bay and very much enjoyed being Jemetically Modified, check out their exploits here. They even filmed me doing a learn to SUP presentation as I am always looking to develop my clients waterperson skills. 

After Ireland it was next stop to West Wales, via the glorious Irish and hilly Welsh roads, for the BoardWise Bonfire Aberdovey demo where we scored wind and lots of happy windies loving the toys and it goes without saying that the FireMove was loving the conditions, whilst being powered up the super stable and speedy Ezzy Cheetahs. You can check out Whiteys blog where he gives you an updated low down on this glorious board and highlights the fab test that Boards have given it.

Thanks for reading and I look forward to seeing or hearing from you soon and also hope we can get some ocean realignment together.

Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think.

Carpe Diem,

Jem
