Hey Fellas,

All being well my Aussie Visa should be granted soon and I can't wait to get to Australia and to be able to burn my 5mm steamer, gimp hood, boots and gloves.

As I have never windsurfed in Australia I am hoping someone might be able to help me with either links or active clubs in either Perth or Sydney so that I can start planning the windsurfing.

Thanks

For a second your title looked like windsurfing porn. So I wondered if there would be pictures of naked boards and sails in displayed in fancy positions. Ahh well... :(

Yeah, but it is blowing N/E now Karl.
Packing the gear now.

Perth gets more wind than rest of Oz combined

Today in Yeppoon is too bad - don't know if I've got a small enough sail though. Water was coming over the dunes at 10am with ocean really blown out.

if your here for the sun the wind and the waves






no brainer,,,makes everywhere else look ****e......

wonder how that abrol trip is going????? hope they took their travel calms...

Adelaide is also good, heaps good!

Adelaide is heaps good as. Often overlooked. My biggest sail was a 5.2 when I lived there.

What about a little state called VIC?? dont come here for the night life, tho.

You make coffee?
Or you want to work in Java - FIFO I guess?

Perth it is then!

Then one remembers that he needs to support Wife and Kids through IT job. Let's just hope I can get a Java job in Perth

There are some java jobs around, some of the bigger companies have quite attractive options.

With a name like Flanagan, sounds a tad Irish.....which means you should get along just fine here
Just wondering where the best windsurfing spots are around Britain, looking at my next trip? I notice you own windsurfing Gidget (Beth Williamson) comes from Liverpool, and she apparently sails on the Mersey and River Dee? How is the Portsmouth area? I know Cornwall is good for surfing, but do they windsurf there too? Don't worry about offshore winds, how do yo cope with the massive tides?
I noticed that windsurfing (and surfing) was big in Ireland, especially around Sligo.
