A few of the better shots...... sorry, basic camera and I wasn't wearing my specs.

Arvo sesh in 1st channel was excellent too.... perhaps my best of the trip..... channel was almost perfectly perpendicular to the wind, which had dropped below 30 knots such that I could hold down the 4.4m, but still get a free facial exfoliation.

Congrats on the 45 knots board speed!!!!

Wind pulled the plug at about 3 am, and I picked up a glassy surf at Sisters on the way home, too.

Nope definitely not! Just the winds been fickle and or honking! And yes MTB probably has taken a step forward haha

we have had some good kite sessions of late, with at least 8-10 kites on the water. Here at PS. Plus some ripper speed sailing

Yesterday's satellite image....... shows how the 3rd channel has been really straightened off..... would be epic in a NE. First channel better in E.

That confirms my thoughts when I rocked up there at low tide! Straight away I thought 3rd channel was a hell of a lot closer. Eating it's way towards the shore.
