SurfEars
This looks like a really cool project, that I think you should support if you have the oppurtunity.
I still have a feeling of bad consciousness whenever I get into cold water and I feel the pain form cold water getting in your ear.
If you spend a lot of time in cold water , your risk of getting surfers ear ( the common name for an exostosis or abnormal bone growth within the ear canal).

Birthday Presents
Over the weekend I celebrated my birthday and I was lucky enough to score some cool gifts.
Here are a couple of nice gadgets that I think you should check out if you get the chance. They come highly recommended
Atan Surf-boots
I was lucky enough to score two pairs of theese. They without comparrison the best boots you will ever get your hans on ( If you ask me). Give yourself the chance to check them out the next time you shopping for surfboots.
I got the toasty warm 6.5 mm winter-version and the 3mm spring version
Order your next pair here
Kanu logs
If you like me drive a smaller car it can ease your mind that you are able to lock down your boards and reduce the risk of theft.
These steel-enforced straps look like the real del to me I will definitely put them to use during this seasons combined family-surf trips
SUP -tips with Danni Ching
for practising your technique... pretty cool

Board update
Since I first posted about my new Fanatic Falcon 14x25 SUP raceboard. I have received quite a few questions regarding the board and how it handles diffrent conditions.
I really like the board , its definately fast , paddeling in the flats really has gotten much more fun with this board.
Its quite narrow and of course its a little tippy but its has great secondary stability. Its not made for stading around talking to your mates, you end up taking a swim.
It becomes more stable the faster you go. It took me a little pratice to master bouy turns the way I am used to , but now I dont really think about it anymore.
On downwinder conditions is a huge improvement to my previous boards, it catches runners real easy and its very easy to surf. The nose shape prevents the nose from getting stuck when going down step faces, it is however not a real ELf-shoe nose like some dedicated downwind boards have, but I find it works both in the flat and on downwinders.
Bear in mind that I am riding the 2013 version, I recently took the 2014 Falcon 12'6 for a quick spin and I most say I was impressed

Below Zero recap
So here is my little recap of this weekends event. The first race of 2014
Let me say first of I had a blast!
The route was scenic, the weather was sunny with mild temperatures and the water was so still it was like cutting through glass.
15 eager riders met for a race course with a few suprises.
We started straight of the beach in an epic battle for position
The Pictures are all from the event site:
Then a short sprint to go around a bouy.
Here a short video of the start and the bouy from a riders perspective:
We then raced back to shore and had to saw through a piece of timber with an old rusty saw.
Back up on the boards and start paddeling. 8-9 km through some beautifull scenery. After some catching up I soon caugth the tail of Peter Steinfath ( younger brother of world Champ Casper Steinfath) we chased the leader Mads Ring for quite a while before Philip came strong from behind and joined our group.
We weren't able to fully catch Mads before we hit the shore. He was a little ahead before Philip, Peter and I hit the shore only seconds apart.
We only had one last challenge before the rae was over. We had to chop through a piece of wood with an axe.
Years of working in the forrest came to my advantage and I moved into second position.
Much deserved winner was Mads Ring who had the lead for almost the entire race
We raced for almost an hour, I ended with an average HeartRate of 177 so pretty hard work , but so much fun
It was a great event- i will highly recommend everybody to join in!
I am already looking forward to the next event be sure to join in at :

Cold Hawaii Q and A
Friends of Cold Hawaii answer a lot of the mostly asked questions about this years cancelled World cup event.
Here is the news, copied from their website:
Responses to queries
After Friends of Cold Hawaii’s announcement that there will be no World Cup in 2014, the matter has been discussed widely. Part of what has been said is true, but there is also a part, which is not (completely) correct, and some is the result of misunderstandings. Based on the reactions, the association has made this series of questions and answers. With that, we hope we can contribute to a better understanding of the core of the situation.
Facts:
Q: What is Cold Hawaii?
A: Cold Hawaii is an area in Thisted municipality, more specific the coastline from Agger in the south to Hamburg north-east of Hanstholm.
Q: Is Friends of Cold Hawaii a sports club?
A: Friends of Cold Hawaii is not a sports club, but a business/trade association, whose primary purpose is to organize a windsurf World Cup in Thy. By dissolution of the association, any assets will be transferred to youth work in water sports associations in Thisted Municipality.
Q: What is the purpose of Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup?
A: The purpose of the event is to promote Thisted Municipality as an attractive place to live and spend holidays throughout the year, benefitting the businesses.
Q: How does Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup fulfil the purpose of Friends of Cold Hawaii?
A: This is done through the massive media coverage the event creates, and from this, the general interest for the area as a destination for outdoor activities.
Q: What is the sports element of Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup?
A: Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup has so far been held 4 times in September from 2010 to 2013. The participants are 32 of the world’s best windsurfers, who have beforehand qualified for the event.
Q: How is Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup run?
A: The Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup is run by a group of volunteers and a group of paid employees.
There are approximately 150 volunteers involved; several of these come from the associations KLF66, the local fishing association, and NASA, the local surf club.
The paid employees are primarily hired for project management, communication and distribution of the event, including content for television and press relations.
Q: How is the economy for Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup put together?
A: The accounts of the event in 2013, shows revenue of DKK 2.1 million. The income is distributed on DKK 300,000 from Thisted Municipality, DKK 900,000 in sponsorships, memberships and ad revenue, and finally DKK 900,000 in other funding for example from Sport Event Denmark, Region Nordjylland (North Region of Denmark) and VisitNordjylland. The outcome of the event in 2013 is a loss of DKK 32,000. In 2014 it was expected to have increased revenue from sponsorships, memberships and advertisers but reduced income from other funding, including the absence of income of DKK 150,000 from Sport Event Denmark.
Q: Is Friends of Cold Hawaii responsible for other assignments?
A: Friends of Cold Hawaii has, apart from organizing the World Cup, taken on assignments such as ministerial visits, visits from abroad as well as feedback and approaches from researchers and institutions during the year.
Q: Was it too early that Friends of Cold Hawaii decided not to carry through with the event in 2014?
A: It was made clear that the association needed a grant of DKK 500,000 from Thisted Municipality, to be able to continue the work with fundraising and running the event. With DKK 350,000 it was decided, that it was not possible to carry through with the event.
Q: Could other possibilities for financing have been researched better?
A: The board of the association Friends of Cold Hawaii has assessed that the prospect for success, are small. The association consider it an expression of responsibility.
Q: Is there any bitterness at Friends of Cold Hawaii, about not being granted the DKK 500,000?
A: There is no one in Friends of Cold Hawaii who is bitter. We are proud of the process from 2010 – 2013 and believe that everybody who has contributed can be proud of it. The four years with Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup have been positive. That is what the association is focused on.
Q: Is it not ungrateful to not accept the DKK 350,000?
A: We are not “given” DKK 350,000 from Thisted Municipality. The municipality has approved DKK 350,000, if, and only if, Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup is held. If we fail to find the remaining funding (DKK 1,850,000) nothing will be paid out from Thisted Municipality.
Q: Why can the budget not be reduced with DKK 150,000, and by that adjust the expenses?
A: Friends of Cold Hawaii wishes for an event with a certain level of production. The board of the association has concluded, that it is not possible to keep that level if the budget is being reduced. Therefor it is not possible with cutbacks in the budget.
Q: What is going to happen now?
A: To start with, Cold Hawaii PWA World Cup is taken off the programme for 2014. The association is now planning this year’s activities. Apart from that, Friends of Cold Hawaii is working on a model for a World Cup in 2015 and the years that follow.

More Westcoast Fire
As previously mentioned, we have had a spell of good conditions lately.
Wind, waves and temperatures that give some hope of spring lurking just around the corner.
There has been lots of windsurf action:

Home ground
When I was younger I used to windsurf a lot on the danish island Rømø as it was the nearest wavespot from my parents house. I still go there maybe 2-3 imes a year and mostly like it. Its often described as the softer sister of legendary Sylt. I wouldn't call it that beause I find that they are two very diffrent spots. At Rømø, like Sylt, west -wind is directly onshore, so the best thing is to have some sort of angle, Southwest or south-southeast are the preferred wind directions but I have also had some pretty fun days in a northwesterly wind. There are a lot of sandbanks so you will have to manage a lot of breaking waves going out.
The on land conditions deserve some mentioning as well.
You park on the very large beach and when the conditions are on, you will have sand flying and getting in everywhere. The sand also makes for some pretty interesting driving as there is a potential risk of getting stuck. I remember that all too well from bak in the days when I had to borrow my parents car. It was quite a task just getting permission to lend the old wreck and you didn't, under no circumstances, want to return it all covered in sand.
Here is a nice movie about some guys surfing my old home break, I enjoyed it !

New gear
When ever the weather gets cold and non-surfable I find myself spending more time in front of the computer surfing the net.
I often stop by the classified sections of different websites to see if I can make a goood deal or just to drowel over other peoples stuff.
Other times Its just fun to watched really old gear beeing put to sale for unrealistic amounts of money allthough a museum or even the dumpsters would have been better options.
But this time I think I have struck gold, I found and offer to good to resist , another new SUP raceboard.
Fanatic Falcon 14 feet x 25 inches. super ligth and fast.
I made a quick decision and the board is mine
When the sun finally came out the other day I simply had to take the new board for a spin. We had only 17 hours of sun in January, so when the sun was finally out I couldn't resist the chance to get in the water allthough conditions were far from great.

Safety first
As I have grown older and after becoming a father I have been giving the safety aspekt of our sport more and more attention.
I have probably surfed for than 20 years without suffering any real injuries aside from bruises and scratches.
None the less I bought a helmet a few years ago to use while windsurfing in more extreme conditions.
The latest addition to my safety equipment is the Restube
It is a small and Handy device that wont bother your performance on the water, it can be worn attached to your harness or camelback on longer sup runs
with one strong pull the floating body inflates and you even have an integrated rescue whistle.
Watch the video to learn more.
I will definitely be wearing mine during this years sup-races including the ocean crossing Strokes

Downwinders
For a long time I wondered: whats the point with these downwinders everyone is talking about?
Battling out there in high winds with a huge board doesn't really make that much sense
Here are 2 videos that ,hopefully, show why it is afun and pretty addictive thing to do
First of a superb video from Hawaii, showing great conditions and great boards
Second a small go-pro version from the 2. january, 15-20 knots winds from a southerly direction left me a litlle clueless of what to do. But fortuneately we decided to try a downwninder at a local beach.
12 hours of winterfun with an average heartrate of 164 ;-)
