Yesterday was insane in WA.

I took a few shots of the locals.

Here is Reno Heier at Woodmans point looping though the crowd.

Looks more like 15 knots in those pics..

Why would you talk up 35 knots in the first place sci??

I know, for the same reason as your review on the North Dice.. It's a flappin it's a flappin

Calling a thread 35 kn implies that is what the wind "mostly was"


NO, it was mostly hi 20's to 30 with very rare gusts into the 30's late late.

It was a 30kn day at best not 35kn. Yes it was windy but it was not a "35kn day" like Greenhead to Gero was.

sci is claiming it and it don't work.

He never said it was a 35 knot day did he?! "35 knots xXL" and the photo looks like it was taken late in the day so probably when it was 35 knots. Get off your high horse, just cause you can't do these awesome tricks windsurfing, lol

I never said it was not windy or there was not some farkin good kiting going on at Woodies - I just said he is talking it up a bit in the title.

The hardest thing about kiteboarding is listening to whingeing kiteboarders.

I never land that smooth when looping.

I think I loop too early.

Why are you worried about the 35knot claim and not the XXL claim ?

Woodman Point isn't XXL. Ever.

carantoc: here's somewhere for you & mark to go where you can complain about battens and daggerboards, compare board size by litres, & reminisce about the glory days of the 90s- www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/Windsurfing/General/
leave us to alone discuss proper boardsports...
