can’t get excited?

Posted in Surf News, Tid's Bits at 7:18 pm by tidders

I can’t get excited by some things…..can you….?

i was reading the blog of a bunch of industry leaders and there he had a picture of his bike in it’s shed that was nice..but it didn’t excite me…..

i guess it’s because when you see the toy it has to stimulate the trill….well
I’ve had a great week sunshine days off meeting the surf gods (photos to come later)…

and I had a visit from JP who stopped to have a crab lunch….

and with he brought some little fishes….
if that excites you the get down to shop on the harbour for a gawk before they all go!

3water is life.jpg

I’m back and 6 days later still shell-shocked from the returning contrast!!!

Maroc- A land of amazing contrast with no piece of 80km the same..until you hit the sahara..
insane waves/ mad people, poor people/ hot food , rich /poor, fruit /meat, hills/ desert, plains/ mountains, peace /noise, hot /cold, BUT happy …….. they have something we’ve lost ……….CONTENTMENT!

I’m hooked I’ve just been looking at the photos and I’m gonna stick a few on the gallery perhaps let william’s diary do the talking…
so keep looking /////!!

PLAN is to do an autumn surfari 10 or so heads in 4×4’s with a chef,porter, photographer Samir to guide and 1400kms across the Sahara beaten southern coast. El Dakhla is the destination…a heaven I’m told..a trip of your life time to a destination that is largely unscaled That’s real Africa…interested? contact me
using feedback…or call the shop..
A quick thanks to all our friends for all there help and love in our trip..it was a love experience on the hippy surf trail!

Welcome to our Blog

Posted in Blower's Hot Air, Skate News, Surf News, Tid's Bits at 12:18 pm by Blower

Blog wots a BLOG????? It s a WEB-LOG..hence…. BLOG!

It’s like our online diary for tad with info and photos! This is where to keep up to date with whats really going on. Hear the latest reviews, news and see them photos! If you want to comment publish and like a forum if we like them we’ll publish them.

The idea is it gives us geek free flexibility!

We will have a ‘Surf’ section, ‘Skate’ section and a ‘Kitesurf’ section along with ‘Tid’s Bits’ and ‘Blowers Hot Air’ where we will also keep you informed of all the day to day things you might be interested to hear about.

We’re still getting our heads around the ‘Blog’ idea but we have assigned Tristan Rothwell to be our specialist ‘Skate’ expert. Tids will keep you all informed of the the ‘Surfing/Tad News’ and Matt will be keeping you up to date with the latset in the world of ‘Kitesurfing’.

We will be posting new things semi-regularly.

Thanks for visiting and come back- it’ll be worth it!
If you’ve got new softwear then press the rss feeds buttons below and I’m reliably informed that you’ll get a little man tell you when there’s a new post!

 Tids, Tristan and Matt.

Morrocco here We… come

Posted in Surf News, Tid's Bits at 6:50 pm by tidders

It’s late and I still havn’t packed, the winter preorders havn’t beeen sorted, the kids all have D&V, me and Mino both have a cold I havn’t finished Jim’s office , the roof is leaking down at the old sail loft….none of this matters because as long as I pack my board and my shorts and my slaps (and the wife does all the rest) this time tomorrow I will have been picked up by Samir and I’ll be dreaming of the glorius point breaks I’m going to find and the things I’m going to see,,,so If you’re stuck at home I’ll be having one for you..if you’re unsure then don’t be get your bag packed and get off……and I’ll be reporting from the field (hopefully) with some African updates soon!
as the man says it’ll be no trouble you are doing me the honor of being my guests!

‘ OL SPRING TIMER or THINK SPRING..

Posted in Surf News, Tid's Bits at 5:36 pm by tidders

As I sat out back last Sunday enjoying the waves at the bay I sensed the season was changing……although not technically until the 23rd of March …I’d seen the signs the first snow drops daffodils and the water felt different..or was it just the lack of biting northerly wind….so this week after that I decided to be brave and “think spring”. This decision has changed my outlook just like the lighter evenings my spirit has lifted I’m even scrambling to get out on my skateboard after work…Steady boy….

 

So I’m committed …and that’s meant Spring stock is on the shelves to mark the turning seson…..NOt fully committed though as I’ve kept the Snow kit out as next week half term brings the snow hire onslaught….soory as I am there’s no snow I take it as affirmation the season may be turning earlier this year!

So I’m off to make plans for those extra summer hours!
