I was wondering what JB said about having a race division that's 12' and less and 12' and above.

I thought that's a bit rough for JL and their 12'6" Distance board.

I've just noticed that Naish are sponsoring the upcoming Maliko to Kahului Race on the 13th and have decided on a 13' and less and 13' and more division.

I found this great vid on last years event..It's a bit long at 15 minutes but well worth watching...imo..

I love the way they start flat out and near the end they are showing serious hurting..

I love the bit just before mid way in the vid where the guy in the light blue is chasing the bikini girl in yellow..

There's some good stand up footage just after the half way mark and towards the end.

There's also some good bits showing the glide that they get on these ocean swells..

I can't wait to get myself a race board like these....and I wonder how the new Naish race board will go in this event..
