Kyeemagh on a 4.0 with a 80 litre eve board would have been the best option for today.




One bloke was out at the shell station with a 2.6 and he was plaining. I didn't even know you can buy such small sails :) I was just trying to survive on my 4.5. A 3.7 would have been much better.

Nice video Justin.

Yes makesurf... Or TBay
But today Toowoon was way toowiiindy








I was waiting for someone to turn up but in the end gave it a miss.(getting soft in my old age) Constant 40-45knots and blown out. Blew 2 metal power poles down in the top carpark. Keen for a sail this morning if the wind hangs in.


Only had a 4.7 with me and don't think I would have stood a chance with it

Looked wild And fun!

I was tempted, but a while back I lent my small sails, mast and boom to a Seabreeze member starting out windsurfing. They seemed to have now disappeared along, with my gear. Lesson learnt, no more good deeds!

if your out there... bring my gear back!

I want one!
Only problem is I've found my 3.2m is it' s twitchy as to use
Not sure if it just needs consistent 30kts + which we rarely get (although got that Friday.)
It's also a 90's model no twist type..I know the few times I have been comfortably powered with it ( generally under or ballistic overpowered in winter Westerlies) it's an unreal feeling to have such a light sail in your hands!
