If you're warm-blooded and fancy getting away at the most miserable time of year (Nov?) then NOTE THAT THERE ARE THREE SPOTS LEFT ON MY MAURTIUS TRIP! Details opposite.

DAHAB date change.
There are a couple of slots left on my October Dahab trip. Just note that due to the demise of Flight Options, we've had to change the date by a day - we now leave on 13th October. October is a great month in Dahab - still windy but not so skin-blistering scorchio!

PRIVATE GROUPS
I'm based on the south coast and, contrary to popular opinion, do actually spend quite a lot of time in the UK. So if you and a group of mates, feel like some spontaneous tuition in any area of performance, mail me on harty@peter-hart.com and we can form a strategy. |

| WEST WITTERING - Slicker Corners (tacks and gybes) 2 places left |
6-7 Sept |
|

Whether looking to plane out of the carve gybes or get round any way any how, the fundamentals on or off the plane, remain the same. Having PH strip your moves down to their bare essentials not only helps you approach all corners with more time, space and knowledge but will have a knockon effect on your whole sailing. West Witt's low tide lagoon, with iits waist deep water and sandy bottom, matches Dahab's Baby Bay for training perfection.
Minimum standard. Planing in the straps and harness

| WEST WITTERING - Jump and Loop (one day course, 2 day window) 2 places left |
15-16 Sept |
|
|

This one day course is all about learniing to get comfortable in the air with the ultimate aim of pulling the trigger and dipping into that first forward loop. Don't be put off by the thought of being surrounded by scarred. hard-core wave heads! The standard is NOT wildly high. If you just want to focus on jumping, that's fine. But if you declare a will to go for it, you WILL be pushed!
Reluctance to go for the loop often stems from lack of control on approach and take-off. It's therefore an excuse to look at all
aspects of your sailing.
Standard: sailing a sub 100 ltr board on open sea. 100% waterstarts |

| DONEGAL - general skills FULL SORRY |
22-25 September |

It's the longest running of all the PH Mastercllasses - 21 years. The reason for this loyaltyis i simply because I love the place. It's been spared the cruel hand of the developers and the beaches remain as idyllic as ever. We have a jewel of a local organiser in the shape of Brendan Hone who putd together a legendary social program.Popular demand means this year I'm running 2 back to back courses.
Minimum standard. 100% waterstarting and sailing sub 120 litre board on the sea. |

The second course in Donegal is essentially th same as above but with a greater accent on wave-saiiling. If you're not into the waves then fear not as we traditionally do 2 sessions a day - one in the lumps and one in the flat.
Minimum standard. 100% waterstarting and sailing sub 120 litre board on the sea |

With 9 white sand beaches all facing different directions within a few miles of each othe, Tiree is a tailor-made wave-sailing heaven. It also happens to be both the sunniest and windiest place in Britain Not for nothing has it played host to premier national and international wave events. As a place to teach it is second to none as you invariably find whatever conditions you want be it for jumping riding, or just free-riding. With great deals on the ferry and at the Hynish Centre, it is also the best value clinic of the year.
Minimum standard: Planing on the sea on a sub 100 ltr board and happt swiiming in and under breaking waves. |

| DAHAB - general skills - 1 places left |
13-20 October |

Just as the UK weather starts to turn truly wintery, warm the bones and take the manoeuvres to a new level at arguably the best training ground on the planet. Dahab needs little introduction. In my opinion it's comfortably the best of the Red Sea resort. There's a thriving yet laiid-back scene. The hilton is class act with great food and a taste true luxury. And as for the Club Mistra, they just can't do enough for us.
Note a slight day change from 12 to 13 October due to the demise of KISS airline.
Minimum standard. Planing in the straps and harness. |

Now in its 6th year on the PH Masterclass schedule, Mauritus has proven itself as a dream venue for windies AND their non-watery partners. I love it for variety and the fact that it offers so much to such a variety of standards. There are waves for ALL standards and a flat water lagoon for those keener to keep their feet on the ground and crack that turning round issue. The Indian Resort is classy with loads of facilities, tennis spas, diving, bike, gym, 3 restaurants. IT'S ACTUALLY BETTER THAT IT LOOKS!
Minimum standard: planing in straps and harness on sub 120 litre board.

JERICOACOARA (Brazil) gen skills and waves - 4 places left

I run out of superlatives trying to describe the phenomenon that is 'Jeri'. For a start there is no better way to combat the post-Christmas Blues. Imagine, as others in the UK battle through sleet and freezing fog in the dark to get to work, you launch onto blood temperature water, and plane in a sideshore wind, towards smooth, beautifully formed but non-life-threatening waves. Jeri is the windy dream - not just on account of the conditions that suit free-rider, freestyler and aspirant wave-sailor alike, but also because it takes 'laid-back' and relaxing to new levels. Great accom, great food, great place.
Minimum standard: 100% waterstart, sailing sub 110 litre board on the open sea. |
