There’s nothing more exciting than getting a new sled, Ben chat’s about what works for him in terms of both design and construction.
Nothing feels better than busting the fins out the back of the wave! Ben Wilson shares his technique on how to do the Unhooked frontside fin blow.

On May 20th 2011, kitesurfing pioneer, Ben Wilson, caught the world's largest wave ever ridden strapless with a kite. What makes Ben an inspiration to all kiters is his passion for the sport. Ben's driving force for his brand BWS is based on innovation, integrity and inspiration. Ultimately his undying desire to
find the perfect wave and bring it to the public eye.

Mauricio Abreu calls this video WaddascoopMorris! We're not sure what that means, he probably had too much sun on his last holiday, but the filming from John Bilderback is of his usual first rate proportions. Mauricio is fresh back from another boat trip. Some people, eh? This time it was on the Best Odyssey boat in Kosrae, Micronesia, where he was accompanied by the Bilderbacks, Josh Mulcoy, Ben Wilson and more. Nice angles from Morris in this one.
