Course Racing at Belmont - The wave of the future

Course Racing at Belmont and Seal starts NOW!!!





Posing at Seal Beach from left is Gabor Vagi, Mark Moore and Brian Kender. This was their first outing using their new Cabrinha Race boards.




This is the top of the Cabrinha 183 Race Collection. Check it out at http://www.cabrinhakites.com/2011-raceboard.html


Here is what the bottom looks like with the stock, short fins.
As you see Brian stays very low to the board when he races. The wind at Belmont was very light this day so Brian used Alan's 16, because his 12 was too small. He's flying.

Here's Brian going back the other way, starboard. Still that low stance. He told me on the beach that he is forcing the front of the board down by keeping the board flat with his front foot.
Mark was not on the water this day because he only had his 12, but here is Gabor flying the black North racing with Brian on a Cabrinha. At this point they were very close.
A few seconds later you can see that Brian has passed Gabor. Mark and Brian affectionately call Gabor "Coach."



Next time I hope to have some video of the group practicing at Belmont.
