is this looking to have been the best pre chrissy season for several years, rapidly turning into the worst post chrissy season in several years?

Its funny how we've had a lot of crap forecasts but on the day a bit of wind turns up.
The north-easters are like that. Not heaps of wind but enough for a 6.5 or 7

Don't worry mate, I'm due back in a few days, and the wind will crank from then.
Had a massive couple of powder days at Vail yesterday and today, so I'm feeling benificent.
Have 2 new boards that need a righteous work-out too.

Always a good sign when there's a breeze coming through my window early.
strange we are getting Northerly's this late though.

A very strange season indeed. I have traced back the lack of wind and it seems it dates back to when EP started sailing. Not sure if the two are directly related though.

I'm not sure yet. I'm going in with ... "Darling you are the most important thing in the world and are all that I ever think about. I want to spend the entire day in a loving embrace.. ...unless, of course, it gets windy."

That's fair isn't it?

Nothing like a weekend windsurf double-header to get you in the right mood for another working week.

Lucky I didn't follow those "EP ->" signs that were posted around Tamborine that time then. I'd probably be getting the hose again right now.

P.S. Try Hollywell in a NE'r. Just North of the Marina.

i guess everyone has seen the green.

it's been really good of late. i think out of the last 2 weeks there has been maybe 3 days on no wind.

Great post Haircut, you managed to fire up the wind Gods by saying there was no wind about and they sent us a ball tearer. Was well overpowered on a 5.4 late at Manly yesterday.

Cheers buddy.
