Just wondering if anyone went out for a windsurf this arvo?
Was on the water at Metts from 3-5pm powered up on my brand new Tushingham Rock

Didnt see any other windsurfers out just a heap of kites. Not windy enough? Not for me

Yeah thats what I was getting at

Parking was a nigtmare, cars and people everywhere, the beach was crowded with swimmers in the pool.
Just me and my cousin both on 5.7's and 85/86L boards. 15-20 knots and fully powered, warm and summery.
Blasting back and fourth with some little jumps and riding broken waves

Priceless
