might be more today
tide should be good for the lagoon north of wavebreak. has been awesome there lately
hi. yes you can sail from oatland esp, or from the playground at lands end bridge. i usually go from oatland. NE is ideal
its best at 1/4 tide or higher but with a 22cm or less fin, you can still sail even dead low
water is flaaaaaat, and great for practicing stuff
please excuse the brag ![]()
this is from the lagoon today. it's taken me a long time to start to get flakkas, and it was the first time i've managed to do one on video
Sweet matie, looked like a pro... Like evilC I expected a louder woo hoo but perhaps you edited it out?
thanks again
swoosh - if you are boored, i gives you a compilation of KFC northeasters from recent weeks, courtesy of a very patient chairman and the duck gybe princess.....take from it what you can![]()
keeping hands in normal sailing position was a kind of breakthrough for me, i always thought they had to be back, like for a grubby or flat water loop etc.
carving downwind followed by raking the sail back like you were starting a carving 360, just before throwing it at somewhere between the nose of the board and into the wind, also helps throw your body and the board around..... i have discovered
i'm only half way there, at best, on the other tack. i'm pretty sure i've found this the hardest move yet
awesome footage. kfc is a pretty great spot to sail out of for spins, will have to sail around and check out this lagoon, do you mean the flat water on the west side of wavebreak? and where do you launch?
landed my first spock last week, so keen to get back into learning the flakas, i think i've got the start of them okay, just not throwing the sail far enough forward. At some stage i think i'm gonna have to stop putting it off and start learning how to do stuff both tacks ![]()
it looked windy and still quite a bit of water when i went past. if you are going back today it should be okay
Heya Jesse, would be great to catch u back in it![]()
i can't be sure, but would you be interested in 2010 98l pro model JP? i will ask the owner if they would like to upgrade![]()
