I was so desperate to be immersed on Sat, I got the booger board out for the 1st time in 2 years!!

If you think the wind was lame, Perth has bl00dy average surf...

Nice sunny day with fantasic beach views though not all bad then.

I got into a bit of this on the weekend:



Paying for it now though, rocks are harder than water when you fall off.

This sums it up.



Green with envy!

I don't get why all you guys don't just hang up the strings for another 6 months and get out the sticks, hit some waves. No pumping, no untangling, no 'ken sand everywhere, no kite bags, no derigging. Although the swell is arsemonkey's atm, I'm glad it's not windy.

You guys just dont have the right sports/hobbys.

My sports work in all conditions

No wind, no surf - I spearfish and freedive
No wind with surf - I surf
light wind and no swell - I kite mountainboard
strong wind and no swell - freestyle kiteboarding
strong wind and swell - kite surfing

Always be playing!

Good winds,

Mate, you should point that mountainboard at the bottom of the Goat Farm without the kite and practice your downhill snowboarding. I had a ball on Saturday.

It's mountain biking and footy when the kite's packed up. Keeps me fit and active all year round.
