Grand Slam Pics on Gulfster
New guy working the lens at Gulfster. This is a first. His pics for 2/1 include kitesurfing on surfboard strappless, kitesurfing on twin tip, surfing, stand up paddle board, kayak in the waves, and last but not least......windsurfer in the waves.
Definately a first for covering alot of watersports. Hats off Gulfster. Got to try and airchair this weekend. Whoa!!! Trying to get one of the new hydrofoil kiteboards from Carafino. How many of you would be interested in trying this thing out? Check out the video on their website...pretty cool stuff. Talked with Carafino today and apparently this board screams upwind in light winds. No drag. Learning curve seems pretty mellow. I would think this would work great in the gulf on a light wind day. We'll see. http://carafinohydrofoilboard.com/

it's cool that gulfster is expanding thier horizons. Let's face it, surfing is probably the LEAST common watersport done in the gulf of mexico, so it's cool that they've finally caught on!!! No offense, i used to splash around in the waist high washing machine too

i would love to try the hydrofoil board......it would be neat to get a direct feel on how they work, understanding the concept is one thing, but to try it out is another........ fascinating
