Its been so long since I've gone I've forgotten how good it is.I better start to get on a fitness drive soon or Ill die if I do go..
..+ no nice groomed slopes out there..have to rely on decent snow pref spring corn snow..
although we havent had that for years ,we seem to get heavy winter stuff -yuck Still nothing like spectacular views , virgin wilderness slopes & your track is the only one!
Don't get me wrong-I love winter sailing. It's unpredicatable as the wind shifts strength and direction, and it can be cold and dark, but nothing beats those sunny sessions in between out of control horizontal rain squalls when the wind swings to the south and the waves clean up beautifully. Corey and I had the good fortune to enjoy one of those magic 40 min sessions just before sunset all to ourselves south of Perth on Monday night...

Theyre predicting 35 kts tomorrow..Ill wait & see but Im so freaking nervous about going out on the new board in those conditions I wonder why I sail.. Ill force myself as usually ( when i dont injure myself ) its never as scary as I think & I end up enjoying it..I just wish I could turn all the water temperature in my sailing area up to 19dgrees.. 2 wetsuits + 2 thermals , booties , helmet & gloves coming up.. I need to want to fall in!Probably won't be able to move with all the stuff on..I can blame that if I cant gybe..toasty warm..pity I could hardly breathe as it was so tight..back to the drawing board I think..At least I didnt mind sitting in the water but I wore out quickly .Even walking the board up to the start I was having trouble breathing ( with the top wetty unzipped..)
