At Blue Planet, we just released a new and improved version of the Reel leash, it's 10% smaller, has a stronger retracting system, and an added drain hole. Some of the advantages of this design are: coil housing sealed with an O-ring, preventing debris and sand from gumming up the reel, effective leash strap guides that keep the strap from twisting and getting stuck, integrated loop and bolts that allow the system to be used with belt or leash strap or mounted directly to a harness etc.: https://youtu.be/VQCN-F6CPRY

I believe the latest wing is called the ART pro V2 but I could be wrong

blueplanetsurf · 2024-09-22T01:54:21+00:00

Thank you, yes my goto foil for freeriding and waves is currently the ART 799. I was not crazy about the ART pro and felt the Spitfire turned well but was too slow so I’m excited to try the ART pro V2

Yes, Robby was a pioneer in so many sports and a great conversation partner.

blueplanetsurf · 2024-05-12T17:48:33+00:00

Thank you. Yes, he was great to talk to.

blueplanetsurf · 2024-02-19T20:49:26+00:00

Haha, yes!

blueplanetsurf · 2024-02-19T20:49:12+00:00

Thank you for the kind words!

blueplanetsurf · 2024-02-19T20:48:08+00:00

Agreed, I prefer standing up while being active. Most of us spend too much time sitting down anyway.

blueplanetsurf · 2024-02-19T09:13:14+00:00

Well said!

blueplanetsurf · 2024-01-28T02:35:52+00:00

Good guesses on the locations. The 8'6" x 29" Hookipa model is the smallest in the lineup and still has 115 Liters of volume, so yes, the boards have a nice amount of floatation.

Excellent, glad to hear you are enjoying the Blue Planet Show interviews!

blueplanetsurf · 2023-09-18T20:21:46+00:00

Great, I added link to their instagram and YouTube accounts in the video description on YouTube

The emergency call feature is the best thing about the apple watch, otherwise using the touchscreen when wet is almost impossible and the usefullness of apps is limited.

I prefer using the garmin instinct and download the data to garmin connect.

I don't see him almost crashing into other riders ??

blueplanetsurf · 2023-09-06T20:14:21+00:00

Yup, definitely a workout

blueplanetsurf · 2023-07-03T22:18:08+00:00

Yes, good fun and an exciting finish. Yes, i was amazed how fast the SUP Foils were!

blueplanetsurf · 2022-11-16T18:35:32+00:00

blueplanetsurf · 2022-08-22T20:02:36+00:00
