Sweet

Awesome Windsurfing moves added in too - you were crap at that ha ha but the rest was great

Nice waves looked very cold & reminded me of wavesailing conditions in Taranaki NZ...

The wind had mega holes in it, probably why only one windsurfer got out the back all day. There's a spot about 150m out and about 50m long where the wind will drop right off, right in front of the bigger closeouts. In other spots when your trying to just hop a little white water, the gusts would send you up and drop you like a stone.

All the time your watching for the next squally rain bomb to hit.

It's a good thing I'm not a professional kite surfers arse hair, otherwise I'd take offense to comments like kooky and twin tip! LOL

damn.... all this wind in Tas and I'm stuck in Perth "second windiest city in the world" looking at my reflections in the glassy flat no-wind water... Wrong state at this time of year!! Looks like you guys are having fun!

I've been hearing stories of this "causway" llama - sounds like you guys have got a pretty good spot there - next time I'm in Tas I'll be very keen to give it a run!

water temp is around the 12degree mark I think. With a hoody on you look like a freakin bank robber cruising the high seas.

You're right. it was nothing short of massive out the back Ian, just mental. The crew on the beach said the wave we missed on the Vid was over 5m.

LLama -The C kite collection was in the shed this day! But you'll get to ride 'em soon!

Being an ex Tassie boy I know that spot well, a wild piece of coast.

Got to say, winter in Perth is tropical compared to how cold that would be in the west coast water.
