Ben's got the life - more than a month after finishing our kitesurfing camp in Bali, he's still cruising around Indo surfing and kitesurfing his brains out!

"I just had a few fun days kiting in Indonesia with my new Octane kites, they're working really well and I'm stoked on them so I thought I'd make a quick flick! Enjoy..." Ben.

John Omohundro (founder/owner Aviso boards) flew to Bali to join me for this year's Bali Kitesurf Wave camp and hand deliver the first 5'8 Celaritas out of the tool to me. This is the first day of surfing it and kiting it, the waves aren't epic, but fun enough to get me hooked on the board as it's super light, alive and if his theory of "it will last forever" is correct then potentially one the best constructed and feeling boards I have ridden.

Slingshot officially announced their partnership with Aviso Surf this week.  Aviso are the leaders in carbon fibre surfboards in the US.  After spending a week in Bali recently with John from Aviso and seeing Ben Wilson stoked on his boards, I'm confident carbon fibre boards are going to be popular with kiters... not to mention the fact they look sick!
