Just wanted to let you know that Australia now has a windsurfing magazine.
The magazine is printed as a two in one with Sup Mag Australia and will be out mid June.
To subscribe go to http://www.isubscribe.com.au/Australian-Windsurfer-Magazine-Subscription.cfm
It's early days for the mag, so we are after more content and of course advertisers to help it grow.
if you can help at all, contact Alastair or myself.

OK so if I already have SUPmag subscription, and of course currently it includes Kitemag (half of it is kiting) will I now get SUP and Windsurf in my magazine?

I notice some of the other mags seem to mainly feature spectacular stuff - wavesailing' freestyle etc. Will you have any material for your average sailor? Tips for beginers/ intermediates / gps etc would be good. Is ben newson worth subscribing for?

MEDIA RELEASE

It?s been 10 long years since Australian windsurfers have been able to draw inspiration from a magazine created locally with their own heroes and content.

Now the wait is finally over and we are proud to officially launch Australian Windsurfer Magazine (June 16).

Edited by Australia's windsurf guru Alastair McLeod and published by GI Media (publishers of Australian Kite Mag and Stand Up Paddle Boar Mag), this is the one magazine that has it all: in depth interviews with the pros, world-class photography, destination and travel features, reviews and giveaways.

Windsurfer Magazine was born out of passion. It's the love child of Australia's windsurfing community and its here to support what they do.

Published four times a year and released as part of Sup Mag, the glossy full colour publication will be on sale nationally in 1000 newsagents.

Subscriptions are available through: isubscribe, magshop, windsurfermagazine.com and Apple and Android online stores.

For editorial opportunities please contact Al McLeod, for advertising opportunities contact George Ierodiaconou on 0422305416.

We look forward to working with you to grow the sport of windsurfing.

For more information go to www.windsurfermagazine.com

awesome guys this is what australia needs, at the moment there is no way to communicate with all the windsurfers out there and that has massive ramifications for the sport.

This forum works rather well for communicating with windsurfers around Australia But yes it is great news to have a magazine out there again.
