Doesn't look too scary.. maybe I could handle Hawaii..


If you can manage in the gusty, holey air movement that gets called wind your used to in NSW, You would totally love Maui.

Sorry about the sarcasm.

Com-on Ian, the place you're staying at looks too good. PM me with details so I can google it. Is it family friendly? Gary from Coffs.

naaah just kidding! but it's funny when it blows 10 to 25 and the boys had to use 4.7 to 5.5 how picky one gets.
like the worst day here is a not too bad day at home....certainly sailable.

getting a bit arty with the fotos too!

p.s. we went to Kihei today for a change of scenery.




really nice rigging area!

Swell is looking a bit flat over there, that's summer I guess. Hopefully a nice pulse will come through when we get there on Monday

It certainly would be nice to be there but I wouldn't want to have missed the 90% off Everything Sale at SFX today.

I needed that new X9 mast too.

well it had to happen, someone had to wake up early and force us all up the volcano....again!

but today was pretty cool with some uplifting cloudy and heavenly moonscape moments....again!



the crater in all its awesomeness!



the heavy broadwater locals after they pissed in the crater.

with the big island of hawaii in the background.

ahem back to windsurfing.

maui slalom series was on today and it is always great to watch!
fast paced and with it's share of fast locals and pro riders, we had plenty of wind and the races came one after the other!



very passionate are these boys and girls.



paul beat the whole fleet and was adjusting his settings before they even came off the plane!
