At the start of this season, Alex joined Tabou & Vandal Sails. He will be Vandal’s main team rider in waves in the years to come. For Tabou he will be working closely with team mate Thomas Traversa and shaper Fabien Vollenweider on the new waveboards. Click here for an interview with the man on Boardseeker.

So what do we have on here… Two features are ’slides’ and ‘clips’:

‘Slides’ shows the latest slideshow from our umi flickr account.  Click on the flickr icon in the top right to go the umi flickr account for more photos.

‘Clips’ shows the current umi web videos. Again click on the Vimeo icon in the top right to go to our Vimeo page to see other videos and watch them in high definition.

Welcome everybody to the brand new umi website. To read what umi is all about please check the about section on the top right corner of this page. But most of all: check out the team, our slideshows and videos! We’ll be updating this site as often as we can, right now we’re still learing how to get the site to do what we want, for sure we’ll get the hang of it soon!
