Congratulations Josh on winning the 013 Robe Easter Classic.  This has been the biggest event in South Australia pretty much forever. It’s one of the longest running windsurfing events in Australia.
 

 

How many times have you been to the Robe Easter Classic?

This was my 15th year. Haven't missed a year since I was 17.
 

 

Ever won before?

Never won the windsurfing before. A second and a third once before.

First place in kiting a few years back. I'm glad that fad is over for me. Ha ha

 

What gear were you riding?

Was riding a 5.3 Blade and a custom made glug board by Scott McClusky. Actually sails really  good even though Scotty shaped it.

 

Celebrate much?

The weekend is one big party from Thursday until Monday so by the presso Sunday night it was just a few beers with everybody at the robe yacht club.

You should fly down for it next year. It's always a good weekend wind or not .

Thanks Josh.  Keep ripping.
