Onboard Robe Easter Classic Day 1. Well, as expected there was plenty of windy and waves. A few of the regulars hit the water early with 20 knots of wind and around 4 foot surf. In an effort to keep the pole boarders happy, the event was moved to Beachport in search of cleaner waves. The riders were greeted with cross offshore winds gusting to plus 35 knots and 2 to 3 foot waves. The strong gusty conditions tested all the riders. But for those who put the effort in, they were rewarded with some great waves. By around 3:30 most people were spent and made there way back to Robe for a relaxing arvo.
With the weather being so wild ,the decision was made to take the legendary beach party to the Robe Yacht club, where the crew kicked on to some acoustic tunes.
With tomorrows forecast set for a comfortable 15 to 20 knots. I'm sure all the crew will be frothing to hit the water for a great day of wave riding.
