G'day

I've got stock of Surfshades ex USA ...bought 'em for myself and tour groups going to Raro

polycarbonate frames + lenses, polarised, lenses made in USA, neck leash to stop 'em blowing off your face.....

Fully CE and UV400 compliant; certificates of UL Lab testing and compliance held.

Check 'em out on Trademe

www.trademe.co.nz/Sports/Kites-kitesurfi...uction-349912389.htm

Black or silver frame with grey lens or black frame with brown lens.

I looked everywhere for good sunnies that fit my face,stay on, work properly, and last.... I've used one pair for 3 years now.....so very happy with them.

For tunes I use a Speedo Aqua beat MP3 player, only one gig but its plenty enough for a session playmix very basic easy to use on off switch songs and thats about it. And it floats. Tucked under the rashie or steamer it sits there no problems or otherwise has a thing on the back you can run a strap through. It wont play Itunes format which is a pain in the ass but its no problem to make a play list, make an MP3 copy of it load it on then delete the MP3 files off your computer, takes 2 seconds. ear buds are good, they wrap around your ear so they hold themselves in, one thing i am concious of though is it would probably be not too hard to damage your ears if you fell wrong, also if they become dislodged they wont be waterproof anymore so after a big wipeout they may come off, so they are good for cruising light wind no crash sessions. Also use sea specs for sunnies, they are fantastic, they dont fog up and dont fall off.

Hope this helps.
