What a week full of kiting. Today was the highlight.
Plenty of wind and a fun wave @ Windang.
No-one else about, think I might've seen Teabaggin' in the inlet maybe.
Hoping for 6 days in a row tomorrow.

Got a good hour session at Shellharbour beach yesterday. Started blowing just hard enough for the 12m, lasted for about an hour, then died again. Not complaining, I got there in the window.

Nah, not today either.
The graphs looked pretty up and down amongst the rain.
I haven't seen it, but swell could be up and it might be good tomorrow if the wind sticks around...

Wind has been so patchy this weekend.
Whitecaps looked like I should be on a 10, but even the 12 was a little light on.
Oh well, better than no wind thats for sure.

The 2005 fuel was my first kite back in 2007. it spanked me a fair bit as a noob, but it did get me hooked

Yeah I kited Gerroa.
Super onshore but fun wind angle.
Looks like the summer pattern is starting to happen again.
NE, southerly change, day off then back into NE.

I went out to the Bombie late this arvo.
The beach was offshore and super gusty so decided to use the 10m. Got to the Bombie and I was absolutely lit.
Waves were solid but had a far bit of wind chop because of the strong winds (doesn't usually).
Got a few but was pretty much only able to do fully 'depowered' uncontrollable speed runs down the face.
I reckon it would've been better on the 6m.

Anyone else have a kite today?
Hope there is wind tomorrow before the S change.

Fark! Up in next to the island?
Still haven't seen it up there when its had swell, i'd imagine its a pretty sweet direction!
Hope we get the 15-25kn NE that BoM is forecasting for tomorrow...

Shoaly Heads rivermouth is slowly closing up.
About a metre and a half at its deepest, around 40M wide.
Should last till Christmas I'd say.
