Forecast is looking pretty shiit... haven't had a south wester for ages, and not looking good for this week either. And now with daylight savings gone, the old "after work" opportunity has diminished too...

Much sadness. I might have to take up a winter hobby like toast/crumpet eating. Or correcting people's bad spelling and grammar. Or reading the west australian and sunday times.

And yes, i know that those last two sentences technically weren't sentences.

Sigh...

Got a lovely hour and a half in this early this morning, with plenty of wind. Early bird gets the worm. I got out off the water, within half an hour there were about 30+kiters out, 10-20mins after that the wind dropped off to not much.

Shame about the east coast..

The season is about to start
Bring on the first NW

How long are you out for? Hope your and your ankle are recovering nicely

The season is just starting or us up here in the Northern Hemisphere. How cold do the waters become down under? I can sail year round in a wetsuit by travelling to Florida in the winter. That's something I may do next winter.

Thnaks for asking
Ankle coming along beaut. Out of plaster, crap longer term prognosis, pain subsiding swelling almost gone.
Heading back to gym this week to build up a sloppy calf muscle
Back into kiting in three more weeks or so....Just in time for the first of many many hard winter fronts.

Great news Mike

Look forward to your exploits when you hit the water again

Me thinks no....
Like the song says. We've only just began......
Have you seen the forecast for tomorrow. Yip;yar. And i got a new kite today.
Life is good.
