Here is what KiteMovement has to say about Alex...

Not only did F-One rider Alex Caizergues broke the outright all category speed record yesterday in Luderitz at 15:38 with a run at 54.10kts , but he also smashed the 100km/h barrier, which is truly an amazing achievment. This is an historical moment in the sailing world. Alex left his closest competitor almost 2kts behind. Unbelievable. New record is now 54.10kts.  This is the 4th time Alex is breaking a world record.

Record was broken on a new 2011 Bandit IV 8m, using a Kakoo custom board and asymmetrical “RESPONSE” thin fins based on the new UNIBOX system that will equipped all the F-One 2011 twin tips.

Alex Caizergues broke the world speed sailing record : 54.10 knots!

You know you live on an Island when...

I was checking out Craigs List and came across this ad, I thought it was pretty funny and it kind of shows how the vibe is on Maui. They will need a second nanny to watch the kid while she surfs!

North Shore Kiteboarding Map

The North Shore Maui has some restricted areas for kiteboarding.  We ask that when you visit our island you respect these rules and guidelines. The main rule we ask everyone to respect is the no kiteboarding in the FAA (airport) zone. This means no launching from upwind of the lifeguard tower at Kanaha to Lanes (downwind of Ho'okipa) which is an experts only kite spot. I have met people recently that have said "oh, I'm staying on Stable Road, we can launch from our private house". This IS NOT true. Maybe the North Shore homeowners say this as a way to lure you into their $1,000.00 plus dollar a night oceanfront rental or maybe they do not know the rules themself. Also, people should not really be launching at Sugar Cove, if you are any point downwind of Sugar Cove, you are in the FAA no-fly zone. The FAA will not tolerate problems with kiters and have shut down kiting on the North Shore before. We ask that you respect our Maui rules, as we would respect your local rules and guidelines. Mahalo!!!
