Nice one Leo. What program are you using to edit your videos? and is it a free one or better off buying one??.

Sh1t, I don't even own a fin that small let along the balls to sail over such shallow water. Didn't realise Lake George was that shallow too.

Isaak, Google is your friend - I use SOny Vegas but find it overly complex for my feeble mind. You might do somewhat better. There was a thread about a year ago on video movie making software.

Leo and I have talked online about video editing software. We both used iMovie which is free but requires the purchase of a Mac computer.

It looks like the video was shot from the Primbee foreshore park on the Illawarra Lake. I used to live in Primbee about 200 meters from the lake. Not a bad place to live and good windsurfing in winter from there. The lake bottom around there is quite muddy and boggy. Lots of rotting weed.

Great video.

Nice vid Leo,

Bit distracted by the cord flapping around between boom and sail, what is that used for, and is that an adjustable outhaul you're using?

Also, is the shallow bottom hard in places or mostly pretty soft?

Awesome I've made my youtube debut, well my hand and wind gauge have anyway lol. Cool video Leo!

We've have a pretty good run of westerlys off Primbee so far this winter. Lets hope they keep coming hey. Looks like I picked a good year to make a come back to the sport, not that the wife would agree.

It's plain to see you've got more things on your mind than the camera Leo. Good one.

Where did you sail yesterday Keef?

my apologies to ALL if I seem that way.

my intension has never been to offend

proud of what i've achieved in the past three years, "apart from my spelling

never been the best .. " sorry O'neill

just want to share to like minded friends ..I know i found great knowledge

enjoyment inspiration, in all aspects of the sport through the forums and u tube.

and hope that my contribution will hopefully inspire, as Decrepid Kato Hamma

and Choco Sausage "just to name a few" did for me.

thanks !


Realistic sorry you feel that u have to be anonymous, and go to the trouble of

setting up a new acc to express your views... ? call me u have my number !

I've known Leo for ages and how much he has put into improving himself and giving his all for the sport he loves, always lends a hand to anyone that asks and always shares his secrets and tips for anyone. To say his ego is getting too big, Bulls$%^t.
If he has en ego he deserves every bit of it, not that I think he does.
By the way who is this mysterious idiot who can't even say who he is and as Leo said made his profile just for this one blog, Hmmm jealous????????????

Leo, it aint worth biting mate. Those of us that know you know just who you are and what you are like so don't feel as though you have offended anyone.
Like Al I am proud of what you have achieved in such a short time. I for one am very jealous of what you have achieved and hope now one day to be able to emulate your feats.
Keep smiling bud
Oh and you know my wife is a school teacher and I'm sure she'd be happy to tutor you in spelling for a small fee....say....a weed fin!!!

unRealistic,
I think you might be confusing Ego with Pride. Why knock Leo for personally sharing his pleasure in succeeding with something that he has been trying to achieve.
