Going back into Surf Expo 2010 for another look ...




They linked to pools with some sliders with a cable towing wakeboarding setup for pros to play with. Got some rocker there!




Let's stop by and say hi to Lightwave Dave. He is here with his boards and Globerider kite gear. Litewave Designs












Dave continues a years long tradition of posing with a pretty lady at the show.




Incoming power boarders




Todd and Damo were walking around the show. Cabrinha








GoPro was at the show in a big way. Lots of videos in motion and action cameras on display. CLICK IMAGE for full sized photo




The new 3-D GoPro camera setup which should be released within the year. They had an excellent demo video using left and right circular polarizing lens filters. No red and green filters needed. The image quality was excellent!



Here is Damon, an extremely capable person on the GoPro team that I've been communicating with for the last year about underwater applications.




Enrique, Jan, Daniel and Damo are up from SW Florida. http://www.swfloridakiteboarding.com/












Evan and the Mystic booth. http://www.mysticboarding.com/




Adrian brought the line of Undeground Boards for this year all the way from New Zealand.

Boom?



Stopped by the Shred Ready helmet booth to see what is new. http://www.shredready.com/




Tom Sherburne the owner of Shred Ready, suggested the Standard Half Cut for kiting applications with the smaller bill. Lots of thought and design goes into these helmets. The Standard is available with either ABS or Carbon Fiber Kevlar Composite shell.








An example of a graphite shell more suited to kayaking than kiting due to the projection. You can get the helmet above this one in graphite as well.














More to come!
