Saturdays westerly
I know I know, I shouldn't be talking about it but Saturday looks like it could deliver a decent Westerly. Rather than gusty old Narrabeen I was thinking about a recce up to Swansea and Lake Macquarie. Anyone keen?

around newcastle and hawks nest
I just arrive around newcastle from Europe , where i use to windsurf.
I m actualy looking to buy the all gear.
looking for around 100l board more freeride and 4.5 to 6.5 sails (just 2 sail i think) less gear as possible.
I of course don t know about the spots to windsurf around here.
I don t specialy want windsurfing by myself as i don t know the places and danger, and would be happy to get to know people sailing in the area, get to know the few spots where usualy people go.
Is there a windsurf club in the area ?
A windsurf shop ?
where could i buy some cheap wetsuit around here ?
i will also regulary send some time around hawks nest.
cheers
Cyrille

Moguls..( water ones..)
Ok any way to cope with moguls or even enjoy them..It seems Belmont Bay in any W over 20kts ends up with 2 -3 ' moguls coming from different directions..about 4-5' apart..So much for the gybing video I've been watching.. where the hell are you supposed to be able to gybe? Other than that it was just a case of trying to keep the board on the water ..I couldnt sheet on & spent all my time hanging off the boom trying to keep the board under control..

I was using a 105ltre freestyle / wave board..my new 95 ltre board was in for repairs after the courier damaged it..grr [}:)]
