REDBULL UP STREAM - SLOVENIA

Monday, September 22nd, 2008

The SLOVENIA SKULLCANDY Distributor checked in with this update on a nice event that just went down…

“Here are some pictures from the wake event in Slovenia, Red Bull Up Stream.
Wakeboarders were pulled upstream by a rope on the river where usually kayak riders go down stream. We had two Slovenian team riders Robert Pokovec and the 13 years old Jan Kralj there. The Freeskier Bine Zalohar in the jury and Dj Jamirko on the turntables so we had the event covered :)”

Israel - KiteAway Challenge 2008

Wednesday, September 17th, 2008

The pioneers of kite surfing in Israel - did it again…
The second kit challenge was better then we could all imagine.

On a bright Friday morning, 350 people sailed on a yacht, to the middle of the see of Galilee, with TV channel 5 chopper overhead, to see who would become the next kite surfing champ of Israel

Great wind conditions, great runs by all top kite surfers (except Lishai Miller who was unfortunately injured just before the competition) - sick loops, 5 meter high jumps, and stylish tricks left everyone breathless.

The atmosphere on the yacht was great,  Skullcandy DJ,  2 many red-bulls,  and lots of food.

And the winners R:
Da 2008 Champ:   Eli Zarka
2nd:  Yotam Levy
3rd:  Ofry Argov

Thanks to red bull for the energy.
Zarka surfwear for the prize money.
Skullcandy for the prizes to podium winners.
and most of all to Amit Inbar for all he’s doing for the kite scene in Israel.
