General

Unfortunately, during upgrading the website to the latest version, I had to lose the previous forum script and replace it with a new one. This meant we lost all the topics from the last one. However, the new one in my opinion is better than the last, so hopefully you wont mind . Obviously the new forum is in testing phase, so please report any problems.

As well as a new forum, i've installed a new WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) editor. You will notice this when posting comments or forum topics/replies.

The petition against parking meters on Paignton Beach has now closed. Thankyou to the 180 or so people that signed!

Nick mentioned yesterday to put up a sessions box for people wanting to let people know when and where they are going to surf, windsurf, kitesurf, kayak etc. It is located on the right bar under the weather block and is still in the process of being tested. Please do not use it for chat, or non session posting. You need to be registered and logged in to post a session. Point the mouse cursor over the message to get a date and time of when the session was posted.

Torbay Surfing wishes everyone a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!

Apologies to anyone that tried to contact us recently, I've just found out that the email forwarders decided to delete themselves for the info@torbaysurfing.co.uk and danny@torbaysurfing.co.uk email addresses. If you sent us an email and we didnt reply, its quite possible we didn't get your message at all!!!! No worries now, all is fixed.

Being my Birthday today, I thought I would give everyone a surprise. Now, I wanted one of these for a long, long time... and I'm sure you all wanted one, too.... After tedious searching of the Internet and sending a few emails, I've finally found it!

J.T. has sent in some cool wakeboarding, windsurfing and kitesurfing shots making him worthy of having his own section in the Gallery!

Ok guys, here is a promotion movie for the helmet cam. This contains shots from the Wakeboarding2 movie, however, it is not the final movie (that is coming soon). Thanks to J.T., Will and Richie for helping out with the cam and getting some great footage. Stay tuned to see them in the final movie!
