Got some gear im happy to lend out too

Am keen sunday arvo as its looking like it could be an ok seabreeze. As much as i love the light wind stuff - am hanging out for some planing! Come on wind!!!
where are you guys going?
i'll be on formula kit so no freestyle but will follow the crowd none the less.
Just had notification on a job interview so i have had to scrap plans for today def going out on sat though, sun looks stronger but im not convinced it will last. was thinking wello or red, not sure which is better???
I will definitely be heading to Queen's on Sunday afternoon hoping for a big sail blast if the seabreeze kicks in.
steve allen looped his mistral in front of me at the nationals years back and split it in 2
(he was finishing his second lap i was finishing my 1st) ![]()
yes i have done OD type freestyle on the forumla kit. but sailing backwinded is real tough with the power in the sail.
going to make a move around 11-12, providing there is atleast some wind.
Redcliff sounds like the go, very shallow there to isnt it?
yeah im up for it, had a little session at queens beach today dam push tacks cant get my head around them. Might head back there on sunday???
Monday and Tuesday is certainly starting to look the goods... although I guess you probably wouldn't classify it as "light wind" ![]()
Im good for queens, unless anyone can suggest a spot. Stopped at sandgate on my way home to watch all the kite surfers 30+ . does anyone ever sail there becuase that would be a awesome spot.
Had a good little session at south queens, was only out 50 mtrs as it was pretty flat and shallow, trying to flip the rig,heli tacks, nose sinks, board 360's, push tack ( ankle smashers ) etc etc. Its all good fun, would be good to have someone down there that can actually do this stuff, have to keep running back to the van and consulting my tricktionary book.
As i dont have a job yet im pretty good for monday too
ps, anyone need an electrician??
