^ Do go on people.

OK, Oatlands it is. Can't give a definite time, but afternoon-ish. I have (another) party to set up. You be sailing leagues upwind and back, or just out & back off Oatlands? If you're sailing leagues just tell me and I'll meet you somewhere in the middle. I'll be the other windsurfer.

30 knots eh?

It is here. Original plan for me - Shearwater.
She who is to be obeyed says I must go now or never. All aboard.

Any chance of a dump of the raw footage from last time haircut? Want to show the family why I disappear for hours each weekend.

Sounds like it was an awesome day!

i decided to head up to beachmere for a jumping/onshore wave session with a few mates. Let me just say this - next time there is a big SE, and you love jumping - make the pilgrimage - i have said it before, but this place absolutely beats any other place i have sailed for jumping hands down. Totally maxed on a 5m/waveboard, super long cross on starboard tack runs out into steep ramp after steep ramp and the waves just get bigger and bigger as you head out!!! By the end of the arvo they would ahve been 5ft out the back. EPIC!!!!!!!! As the swell roll in accros the sand flats they crumble perfectly so backside riding is also so good.

Join me next time!!! I'll be sure to put the call out next time its looking good.

peace.
