Looks like the wind gods will provide suitable conditions for an afternoon session at Narrow Neck tomorrow... Who's in? I'll be heading down at around 2:30pm - see you there!

What are the conditions like in a NEasterly? Pretty keen to try spots closer to home so I get more sailing time. Was going to head to Cudgen which I know is great in a NE.

I know that main beach is pretty good on a NE'er - small swell, constant breeze... Good parking at Narrow Neck, would be great to get a few flat water people out there!

check the Ballina forecast, I think tomorrow on the southern end could be pretty hit or miss.

aus301 is on the money so far. It is a bit quiet down here (flat rock) so far today compared to yesterday. I might come up to Cudgen if Lukey gives it the nod. Clinton

Luke just messaged me to say he is going in on his 5.0 so I'm pretty sure we will be right as the seabreeze fills in.

Looks like a fair bit of wind early on the graphs... is this a seabreeze or something else?

Oh man, had a ball at Cudgen. Was great to see so many guys and gals (gal really, Kate was there carving it up as she does). I didn't count but I would guess around 12 on the water at one point.

It is just such a great spot, it's like a little Maui trip on a Friday afternoon with the added bonus of port tack conditions. Yee Haaaa!!!!

It sure does charlibeaver! Only had half an hour out there and it was more than enough! Would be great to get more people out there this summer!

Yesterday must have been a record for number of people windsurfing cudgen ever. Had a top time and good to meet some new faces. Not that winter is anywhere near, but has anyone tried it in a south-westerly? Looking at the angle of the beach it could be side-shore/side-off in a SW? I'm speculating epic wavesailing if there is a strong SW wind and a little swell??

I'll give it a shot on the next big NEester with you. Always keen to get a spot closer to home but if not you could always slip down to Cudgen for a run.

Hey Scot,

I would like to check out the wave spots mentioned (narrow heads & cudgen).

Can you give me an idea of exactly where they are mate?

Can I sail there on a 95L freeware?

Cheers,

Paul.

I was staying at peppers when I noticed some sails shining in the sun further up the beach so I put my new born in the stroller and jogged up the footpath to the car park just behind the beach, did some 4*4 with the push chair, don't think my daughter was too impressed with this, managed to fire a few shots off but I couldn't hang around as she was getting a little hungry and I didn't own the necessary tools for the job so I had to run back before she cracked it.
