Back in December 2009 most of our team headed out to the beautiful Caribbean island of Barbados, accompanied by top photographer Alex Williams to capture images of our new 2010 collection, which you'll find in the Gallery.

Almost the moment the guys stepped off the aeroplane the waves picked up and the trade winds kicked in, allowing almost a full week of ACTION. In addition to the excellent wave sailing, we had some fantastic coastal blasting, road trips, SUP surfing and some memorable nights out.

George and Muzza have plenty of stories that they'll be telling over the coming months, in the magazines and with video clips. Keep your eyes peeled for their antics, sure to make great entertainment!

Every one of us had a fantastic trip, with superb waves right on our doorstep, great weather and calloused hands from all the sailing! Barbados is a wonderful location to take a non-windsurfing partner too with stunning beaches all around the island.

  

A big thank you to the Barbados Tourist Board and to Brian Talma, who operates a successful watersports centre at Silver Rock, where you'll find plenty of windsurf, kitesurf, surf and SUP equipment to rent.
