I'll be doing a kiting downwinder on sunday, I'll keep an eye out.
Missed every day this week so far due to work/family commitments... Looking fwd to the next few days..Finally looks like the summer seabreeze patterns are here
I'm keen but not sure how I'll be feeling after my mates 21st on sat.. Will have to be and after lunch decision for me.. like hilly said has been awsome last few days.. Hillarys to mullaloo seems like the best run at the moment its short around 5kms but some really nice linkable runners wooooo
I did my first ever dw on a 10' South Point Bonga Perkins, probably one of the least stable boards on the market. At the moment i am using a 11'2 Starbord while my fund for a 14' grows bigger. You can do it on anything but the experience and fun factor will be different.
I do them on my DC 16 and my mate on my 12.6 JL.. I'd personly say your wasteing your time on anything much less then 12 foot ish.. I used to do them on my 10.5 starboard but Im pretty light and it certainly wasn't ideal..
I have been using my sons 12 glide and have a 14 coming from Santa The 12 is not bad but the 14 is quicker. We did Santracks to Swanie last week on that really windy day and I had Ross's 14 from Scab Longboards (son works there). We swapped half way through and who ever was on the 14 pulled away
How did it go this arvo? I went for a windsurf for a few hours this arvo and was driving out of the carpark when I saw Belly drive in with about 3 or 4 boards on the roof.

Hey Greenie.. You'll have to get yourself a 14' SurfRace.. I had a great time the other day when Jonathan and I swapped boards (I was on the 14' Coreban).

On a Sunday??
Wind was light. Very nice easy paddle, the 14 worked real well. Belly not happy on the 16 with a hangover.
Good to get 5 on the run. Tim and Nathan did it earlier as well so 7 all up most I have seen doing a dw run in Perth.

Come on DJ do a review of the 14's naish v coreban v sb Which is best?
Would love to but not sure there is anywhere to start.. it's all rocks as far as I know.. That's why we normally do port beach to floret.. I could be wrong, certainly have been before..
There is a disabled fisher's access ramp at at the end of north mole (across from the toilet block), divers use it to access the water and wreck site a couple 100m off the rockwall. Not sure of its suitability to get your board's in the water, but worth a look/go...
Best to paddle out from Sandtrax in the lee of the rockwall and then head north. I know the ramp you are talking about Shunter. Could be a bit risky with 20+ knots screaming over the mole and trying to carry your board amongst the rocks.
Anyone up for a Rous Head to City Beach run on thurs, could pull in earlier to make it a bit shorter if needed...
What time you thinking?
We did Hillarys Marina to Ocean Reef last night. I don't like that run as much because a third of the distance seems to be fighting to get around Pinaroo Pt
Me and Hilly are going to do a Mullaloo run due to time constraints and both live NOR. If you are interested meeting us, we will be at the end Mullaloo carpark at 4. We did a Santrax to Swanie last night, wind was a bit light but always good to get in the water
