Had a brief sail this morning. Overpowered, sore toe, so decided to take a few photos instead. Hope I don't offend anyone by putting some kiting shots here as well . . . .

The windsurfing shots were Black Rock, the kiters were at Sandringham. If you're in any of them and want the original, PM me.

Its like a praise burger; good at the start, the negative in the middle and good again at the end

Is that like a formula for criticism? God your good lookin. Geez you f^^ked that job up and if you do it again you're fired. Did I say you're good lookin.

That looks pretty windy. Around here you don't see many kites out when it's blowing like that. I assume it's because the gusts can blow you clean away with a kite whereas on a sailboard they just knock you over.

Yep, a praise burger is an instructional technique, Say something good, then discuss the mistakes, then say something good.

In the post above, we have windsurfers, kiters, windsurfer. Classic example.
