had a great session, 2 hours powered up sweet!

Haircut and the chairman still at it when I left, go hard boys!

Boasting about palm blisters
Where is it all going to end

same tommorrow?

Im thinking either a wave session or the shearwater, mmmmmm, decisions decisions, lets hope we get another spurpise like today!

Shearwater again for me
About 10.30
Same wind please

shearwater it is! on my way in 20 min!!

Hope you are all having a great time. yep that would be right - stitches on my foot Tuesday then its windy Wed, Thurs, Friday and probably Sat Sun too. Stepped on something (probably a broken stubby) during a marginal session Tuesday.
Doctor said i am probably out of action for 2-3 weeks.
F... That, 1 week tops.

NOT HAPPY JAN!!

Ps. Thanks to the Magna Driving Kite Surfing Tennis Instructor (not sure of your name) for your assistance.

No fun at all
Terrible if the next 2 days are as bad
DaVecta whisky is very good for bad feet
Nebian whisky is very good for broken ribs
Hope to see both of you back soon

maybe there was a carpark brawl after I left!

Damn I'm still reading this post from work. Lets hope there is some wind left over for the weekend wind warriors tomorrow.
Da Vecta sorry to hear about the foot- the sail is here for you when youre back up to it.

What a classic shearwater day...

20-25 knots from the time I rigged up (9:30) to the time I left (4pm). When it's on, it's on

Yes I did launch that kiter into the tree but in my defence he was really pulling hard on the lines which when I was launching another kiter was the signal to "GO". I guess in 25 knots it means something different. Luckily no harm done.

I think I've only got a wicked bruise on the outside of my rib (or torn a muscle there) from that catapult, I'm not sure what I hit on the way over the handlebars, but I think that I was unconscious for a second or so underwater... I didn't know which way to swim so I could get some air when I came to. I was also convinced my mast had broken from the force of hitting the water, that was the biggest catapult I've ever had. Luckily I didn't have any trouble getting out of the harness lines underwater. Not sure if I'll be able to sail tomorrow, that last run back was agony

Thanks for putting up that photo of me pretending to gybe, as usual weight is too far back, knees too straight, not sheeted in enough. And I thought I was doing well on that one! Sometimes you have to see a picture of yourself to know what's going wrong.

Hopefully this rib/bruise/muscle will let me get on the water tomorrow, got a hot date with a svelte JP

man where was the crew at today i was at shear water from 3:30 and no sign of a fellow windsurfer except some speed demon in the distance(zoran) I have got a few guys comin down tomoz, so it shoulod be good. I donno if any of u guys have met the three swiss guys yet but they were at the train on thursday. far out man ther was one guy busting handed flakas and spock 900's he was preety good aye.well i hope to see u all tomoz.

Enjoy Searwater
Bam Bam and I are off to Golden Beach
See Nebian the whiskey is curing your ribs
a break to a bruise in 4 hours

Most of us were there sailing from about 11am.

Im keen for some waves tmrw tho, might head to shearwater sunday.

3 hour drive for me to shearwater.

any suggestions for flatwater places which would work tomorrow.. which are a bit further south?


thanks!

well i got a 30cm fin... dunno how good i am at going upwind thou.. pretty bad i assume. but sounds like a good idea.. i will check it out on the way through.. if its no good.. then i'll just go to shearwater. i'm in a subaru forester.. silver. if you see me on the water.. i will be on a yellow starboard.
