And cheers to you too, mate!

Another priceless vid. You’ve got some cracking conditions there.

I've missed your DW videos here on the Zone, but I do realize it is Winter where you are Melbourne, Australia. I don't sup in cold water either since I don't wear a wet/dry suit.

I'm glad to see the weather cooperated enough to give you a bright and sunny day to downwind, not to mention the good wind and water conditions for a downwind. 

With this video of yours, I concentrated on your footwork as well as how you were using your paddle. A detail caught my eye and I'm going to try something on my next flat water session.

As always, thanks for sharing your DW videos here on the Zone.

The waves really start looking nice around 2:14.  Great video - enjoy watching them - hope to get down there sometime and catch a downwinder with you.

 ;D

This would be interesting to see if DJ will sell his 2018 for the new one in light
of the fact that it looks like it's the same shape only different construction...

Maybe he has more details?

He did mention that it really liked the new color scheme so the fashion statement might be enough incentive  ;D

Sorry, but I don’t think the new Naish colour scheme can be called a fashion statement :( More like a fashion aberration.

But then, I suppose it's as they say. That being, beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

Nice filming. Still the best camera angle. Nice edit as usual. Nice waves. They build nicely near the end.

Bad ass Troy Lee shirt!
