Yeah thats right you heard me right, in three days i will be sailing in 35 knots plus

I am on a new adventure this time to the island of Penghu. This island is part of the taiwanese island chain and cops the full brunt of the monsoonal season which has just started. I am going to test out the new Aeron V grip booms on a mates 3.6 and do the Asian RSX championships.



here is what the conditions are like www.penghuwindsurf.idv.tw/ and here is what windguru is predicting
www.windguru.cz/4873


and i have been told to add on 10 knots. And don't worry i will keep you all posted this time with video's and photo's as i am staying with the guy who owns areon sports

Luke,
Could this not be the best speed strip if it gets the winds you talk about. Have fun you lucky bastard.

Holy **** what a day probably the most stressfull days in my life finnaly got most of my **** sorted in Penghu now sitting waiting for my last lift, $2000 (in excess and travel) later and a **** load of stuffing around i got my gear from one side of taiwan to other and got it rechecked in world record time 4 mins thanks to my escort Josh :)

the good news is that it is warm muggy and blowing dogs off chains looks like i have solved my no wind issues, 35 to 40knots tomorrow
