We had a good turn out today, there was quite a few guys who turned up to jam. I have never seen so many windsurfers at safety beach before We will make it a regular meet, say every 2 weeks.. I saw some really nice aerials today at safety beach done by leman and windaddict. One of windaddicts jumps looked the hight of half of lamp post, so he really flew..Most of us had a go at jumping today. The conditions dont get much bettter than today, it was unreal. We got a perfact side shore 25+ knot sw wind, and the ramps were super smooth.. There were some cars that drove by and stopped just to watch us all, think they were a little amazed at all the windsurfers around The event in the future will be run by me and my brother John

great photoing Flip. Couldn't make it today 'cos I only had a small window of time, so I settled for a sail at Oliver's Hill. (which was pretty good too.) Your spot looked really good though. Make sure you let us all know when you and your bro are gonna organise another windsurf jam.

Yeah, awesome fun today. My best sail in a long time, and great to sail with a bunch of the regulars from Seabreeze.

Some excellent photos Flipper. I don't really have any of me windsurfing and you managed to shoot 6 good ones, some mid carve. I'll have to change my avatar now.

Hope your dads non-water proof camera handled the rain ok.

Sorry Windaddict, I only worked at that was you as I was driving off. That would explain how you knew my name.

Nice work Flip, both for arranging the jam and for the photos. That was probably the best session I've had this year.
These are the first photos I've seen of myself windsurfing in 20 years.

Who were the guys in the Honda who I was first speaking to down the road at around 11am when I was still deciding what to rig?

No probs mate, was a good session for the bay. Fairly consistent 25+ from about 1pm till 6pm.. I was a bit sore last night, haven't sailed for nearly 5 hours straight for quite a while. Good physical challenge Not much happening today by the looks. Next good forecast we should all meet up again some where, it was good fun sailing with you all!

Hey thanks for carrying my board mate. After me universal came loose i ended up miles down wind it was a real pain trying to swim in too.. but i still managed to get a good windsurf in and take some pics. Windsurfers dont make the best camera dudes cause we like to be out on the water.. Next time we will should ask jodie to come along may be to get a pic of every one
