I've never been to Taranaki so it was interesting the see the road, parking and beach... looks pretty rocky too!! A bit of humour in there to... as old Chuck makes an appearance! Word from the editor... <strong> Paul van Bellen:</strong> Got my first semi-sponsored trip over to the wave mecca in the Taranaki area of New Zealand. George, Forrest & myself went across the ditch to join in the fun of the 2018 Taranaki Wave Classic. We didn't get epic conditions, the wind was mostly 5-15 knots but we did get some waves so if we couldn't sail there was still surfing to be had. In case you didn't get the joke, a few months ago there was a news story of some surfers getting shot at by some angry locals up the north end of New Zealand. Kiwi's are really friendly people, just don't surf their waves and you'll be fine ha ha! Thanks to all the windsurfing crew In NZ, you Girls & Guys are a bunch of legends, can't wait to get back when's there's some more wind & waves yew!
