so i ditched work for friday, swerved the propagandi gig at the arena, got nothin on the calender.
BETTER BLOODY BLOW TOMORROW OR I'LL GO AND BREAK BLADES OF GRASS..... I HAVEN"T SAILED FOR 3 WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the question is.
VP or wello
agree windy, i'm going to VP.
and yes it looks bad, very, very bad.....................
rain, no wind, rain.
Which chart are you guys looking at? (not you Gestalt, seabreeze doesn't have enough disk space).
I guess they know where to build airports huh?
how'd you guys fair,
with the rain and the flooded creeks i headed to VP and enjoyed 12-20knot ESE winds.
was a good session on the voodoo
After work sail, easily powered at Manly on the 5.3 + 92L FSW. Got pretty windy towards the end, should have brought my 75L board, woulda been perfect (and a smaller sail... if only I owned one). Only one other guy out on 5.0 + 86L board.
Where was everyone else? First decent wind in a fortnight... thought there would be more people out.
We're heading to the Beach at Manly as it suites every direction. If it blows it will be the first time i would been out on wave gear since Xmas
Swoosh if your interested i've got a NP Combat 4.5m in brand new condition rig's on a 400 mast bom proof only $250
oh haha, I thought you meant you yelled at me
Yeah Manly is my local . I think wello has an epic trek to the water at low tide, thou in return Manly has the stairs... they build character. I remember I think it was first time I sailed manly, howling 25kt SE'er, was carrying my kit up the stairs in the wind shadow, got to the top, caught off balance by a gust and fell backwards all the way down to the bottom. Like I said... character building
I couldn't believe that people would actually launch from the stairs when I went there the first time... I had to do the sissy thing and disconnect my board and sail
agree the tide situation is pretty tragic in brissy,
i usually drive to goldy if it's low tide in brisbane.
thomsons not too bad a walk at low tide though, less than wello
yes vando your right there. i wasn't thinking of that side of wello though.
i figured the walk down the boat ramp and across mud, rocks and crap excluded it since we are talking sand launch spots.
in my mind manly and wello boat ramp are just as bad as each other. why launch in htose spots when there are sand beaches to launch from.
