Where is every one windsurfing this weekend?
The weather forecast looks to be a bit light for the weekend. There could be some wave sailing at Sandy Point if the Easterly wind kicks in. Keep an eye out on Seabreeze forum.

sandy point i am going to practise me dale cook chop hops in the NE wind there. The ramps are small, but you can get good air off them cause the water running up to the bits of chop is flat. So ya get some huge air off the little tackers
Should do but sandy but think the high tide and late wind may be risky for the drive. Going to do some work to have a mid week session. Prob Tuesday am green point.
Well it was on down the coast, a bunch of us went to Waratah bay and it was easily 25 knots in the gusts with head high sets coming in, beautiful cross off and DTL wave riding all day!!! I am super stoked, it was a top day, good sailing with JMan and his crew We were all stuffed by 5:00pm when we packed up. I'll have another one of those next weekend please
You did well today Jman, given that you came to windsurfing with no surfing background. I think you are ready to tackle KGB in the surf now!
