Hello From Israel

Hello everybody from israel

I have been reading for the last month, and enjoying every minute .
Great informative forum for freeride and freestyle

A little about the standup scene around here .
We are very small country 7 million Jewish residences, with great weather all year round, with a nice 100 mile shoreline to the Mediterranean Sea.
Wave are medium in size around 2 to 5 feet,50 % off the time ,mostly choppy

The pwc market sales 40 standups per year, among 300 or more sitdown

The hardcore of freeride stand up community is around 50 guys ,that most of the time riding on the surf.
Most of us running the same setup as you 62t case with ported 61x done by different sources like r&r wamilton ,single carb bored to 48 mine done by scott from SRE
Ada heads ,lowered hoods,and all the goodys,10 years ago

The standup is around here from 1988 only a few of them ,while in 1998 the pwc got boosted in sales ,during the rick roy era.

There were annual racing seasons until 5 years ago, and a freeride racer that took 5th place in freeride tour at Biarritz france in 2001

After a little reading I know we share the same riding issue ,hope I can shere some cheep tricks in maintaninig the ski,photos
I sincerely hope that one day we could all transport our skis to a different location around the world or even meet
Until then, I wish you guys all the best from all of us here at Israel
Many good years to come, and a lot of time doing what you love

strange coincidence. i just finished reading "the glory" last night.

ive wondered if there was any freeriders in Israel but from pics ive seen from tel-aviv, there wasnt much more that 1 foot chop.

where do you ride out of?
 
all tel aviv shoers have wave berier thats why the 1 ft waves
we ride south of tel aviv ,were there is a 21ft underwater pipe on the sea bed ,creating a nice smooth long waves ,higher then any other place

welcome to the X.

I got to ask, what is it like living in Isreal, unfortunately all we ever hear is what is on the news, which is never really a good picture of life in Isreal.

Great Pic. send more.
 
hello
living here is more or less the same as you guys live on everyday terms,with a sense of living on the edge
jetsking is our quiet time away from everthing ,payments,buisness ,rent ,wife,girlfraind,your mother in law etc..
the news is an exterme view of thing ,not even a close view of reality

I have a palestinian friend who would disagree.
