This January 12-20, 2008 the best wave riders in the world will descend on Bocas Del Toro, Panama for an invite-only expedition. The waves of Bocas have been compared to Tahiti and Indo, but they’ve never been ridden like this. What better way to break open this fantasy land of jungle, white sand beaches and massive waves than to bring a handful of the pioneers and best up and coming big names in the sport? In tow are several major national adventure-sports magazines, two film crews, three photographers and a world of unknown.
The Invitation List (not all have confirmed):
Robby Naish (Naish)
Pete Cabrinha (Cabrinha)
Raphael Salles (F.One Kiteboarding)
Will James (Blade Kites)
Josh Mulcoy (Flexifoil)
Felix Pevic (Airush)
Mauricio Abreu (Liquid Force)
Jeff Tobias (Slingshot)
Martin Vari
Sky Solback (North Kites) Joao Pedro Simonsen (Best)

These weekend Tarifa received the BestKiteboarding Dealer Meeting. Sun, hot and poniente wind around 14-15 knots were enought to put the Nemesis HP 12m and the Warroo 11m flying.
The first impresison is that the Waroo 08 is much quicker than the 07.
The bar is a prototype and the final one will be presented in January 08. It will be similar to this prototype but with several imprevements. The bar will bring bring 20+5 meters lines.
