I saw Patrick's Alaia in action in light to moderate winds at Crandon Park recently. The wind had about ebbed but Fiona was able to ride upwind very nicely, better than most.
























Patrick came in early saying he had split his board doing a jump. No worries he had it glued back together by the next day ready to ride again.
