Baker Windsurf Academy's newest students are none other than Peter Andre and his brother Mike. Pete and Mike really liked their first taster session at Hove Lagoon and are keen to carry on. The BWA is giving regular lessons to Pete and Mike over the coming months so watch this space. Were sure it won't be long before you'll see the Andres ripping it up along our south coast beaches.
Shot a few weeks back at Rutland Water during a Slalom Windsurfing Clinic. Thanks to Charlie at Liquid Films for shooting and producing it and webcast-tv.com for hosting it.
We guys I had a super time down at Wales last weekend. Great to see some regular faces and some new ones too. I hope you were all able to take something away from it to progress your own sailing to the next level.

A great turn out for the first night of slalom racing in our series on Monday. Myself, Nik and Jamie Hawkins were there along with about 15 other sailors. In fact the beach was packed with kiters (down wind), surfers (on the point), swimmers (even in bikinis!) and those enjoying a cup of coffee at the café.
The first event will kick off today Monday 27th of July at 5pm and Worthing Sea Lane Cafe! Forecast is a force 4 south westerly once the rain clears. Don't worry if you miss the first race you can turn up any time.

ABOUT THE ACADEMY There are no words to describe the feeling of laying down the sail and cranking into a high-G gybe at 40 knots, or when you jump of a wave and casually take your hand off to wave to your mate below before throwing yourself into a huge stalled forward. This need not be a distant dream, with over 25 years windsurfing experience around the world Ant Baker with the assistance of his brother Nik and world tour sailor Mat Pearch provide windsurfing coaching for this or any other goal you may wish to achieve.
With Clinics and instruction videos on the lips of most windsurfers and magazines unable to provide the personal touch you have to look to the top. There is no instructor or program in the UK that can offer the experience, insight and advice that Ant can provide due to his involvement in the product development in windsurfing, professional competition and years of teaching people to Loop and Gybe.
Ant first took a lesson in 1990 at Club Vass. With the help of his brother, Ant coached Mat Pearch into the awesome sailor he is today, Ant and Mat have been assisting people ever since. The Baker Windsurf Academy the next progression. Email or phone today to see how we can take you to the next level.
Your beach or mine, on your own or with your mates. Sessions tailored your skills, desires and weather conditions. Ant will investigate your strengths and weaknesses to find out what will work best for you.
Run through out the UK and some of the hottest spots around the world. Anyone is welcome to join the clinics but book early as spaces are limited.
