you and me both vando,
missed it yesterday then had to go home early today as the roads to my house were being cut. got home around 2pm "just" then couldn't get out again.
hehe upthere.
i bought my small gear because of that meet too. got the 4.7 i used that day in my garage waiting...... bring on saturday. thinking the train.
might go VP early then head to the train.
would have loved to have even seen it but I got stuck on the mountain. Had to come home via Beenleigh. Big carnage up on the top! Way too many trees blown over. The ridge along the top of the mountain felt like it was averaging 60 knots most of the day.
Was there much debris in the water?
simon saw roof panels blowing off the houseboat near the jetty at train, and they were floating just under surface
Here you go, gentle 40knots breeze already at 8am.
i wonder what the day will bring.
may go around midday to the train or behind wavebreake island somewhere.
Opposite of australia fair is no way to the water since all fenced off.
If not too Eastery
That beats it
And a sail with the long lost Egg
M D may even emerge from the woodwork
Stephanie Rice could help me take my wetsuit off
Probably a bit too much fantasy there
i just wanna throw something out there.
in the past i've taken 5-8 knots off what the seaway says.
from now on i'm taking 10-15 knots off what it says.
I've never sailed VP in a Southerly. Actually I've never sailed VP at all!
Looking forward to Wave Break when wind and tide are right.
Might go Oatlands Esp next SE'r for a change of scenery.
And one day, one day, when I'm bold, stupid and good enough that bank about 1km out of South Stradbroke. I have seen guys paddle surfing it years ago, to my disbelief. PS. check the crew at Sth. Straddie on Googley Maps
we went to burrows st yesterday, and it was surprisingly very good. i think that will become the new spot to substitute for the train on very southerly days when tides wrong at shearwater. the tide runs same way as SW but less strength
was good at grand today too
soooo much wind lately hope it continues throughout winter
keen to try wavebreak as well. the bigger board is coming.
keen to try burrows also. i look at it everytime i drive to the train
needs big ocean swell to get waves there it seems. was dead flat the whole time during the last few days
crystal clear water ??? you lucky bastards. I used to dream about crystal clear water. We have to windsurf in gravel full of barbed wire and old sump oil.!!!
