wow, i totally misjudged how amazing I look with my gopro hat on haha. awesome pics
quick cut of some of the action at the train today. had audio but youtube and the music industry hate me, so you get some random youtube music instead, enjoy!
love your work swoosh, those guys sliding around you is impressive.
hey chexk out this graph from today.
You guys had fun! Excellent pictures hc, awesome video swoosh! Indeed, pretty strong wind at Wello. I was there in the morning for 40min only before driving back to attend a senseless surprise party :(
HD cam, I just use the headstrap, it does come off in big stacks so I have it leashed to the back of my harness.
Thanks for comments guys, will have to make more vids in future. The wideangle definately means you have to get quite close thou, I might film in 1080p in future as it uses 127deg fov vs the 170deg that 720p covers. Also the 60fps slowmo comes out pretty smooth I think, well pleased.
There are a few issues with the camera thou, a few vids got ruined by water droplets on the lens and fogging is an issue after about 30 minutes, so going to try some anti-fogging stuff that haircut suggested. pretty awesome little product for the price.
Looks like fun and you guys are good windsfrs but why wouldn't you go out in the surf on such a good day?
Wasn't freestyle invented in Europe because they didn't have decent wavesailing conditions??
well bowsa i'm no freestyler but when you list your favourite spots as
"lake cootharaba, redcliffe, wello"
i would think freestyle is possibly something you'd find very exciting.
the guys theory of big board small sail is perfect for qld.
i see no point in owning wave gear in qld. u never get good waves. we got lemons so make some lemonade
Haha you do have a point there Jamie! That was an absolutely sick session.
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE waves! it's just that for the majority of the time you get great fun on freestyle gear in ok condition, then when the waves are pumpin, dig out the wave board!
Yeah, Freestyle is where it's at. When there isn't much wind, there is nothing I love more than getting out on my long board and busting some moves
But man, when the wind comes out, I pull out my new rig and cut sick
I'll come along to the next session and teach you guys these moves if you'd like
fair point gestalt but i havent updated my profile thing on seabreeze for a while...
since moving over to the uk i have been much more into wavesailing. im a big bloke and its bloody windy here - biggest sail is now a 5.3.
after sailing places on the south coast of england and recently a trip to brandon bay in ireland i would say im fully converted and all im chasing is DTL wavesailing. Got trips to Cape Verde and Morocco coming up in a few months!
not dissing freestylers at all but just saying my preference!
Geeeeeze bows...
EUT, Bloody E....... U......... T..........
loving the freestyle pics wilba.... good to see the big fella out there aswell!
