Cool vid. OB.

Always looks less choppy from the beach/shore and some of that chop looks big enough.

That was great to watch. OceanBlue, can you tell me what sort of camera you use and did you use a tripod? Also what software do you use to make the movie?

Was a just a small handheld Panasonic DV camera - very shaky with the wind when it was on zoom lol. Wouldnt mind a HD Camera with HDD. One day maybe.

Then used Sony Vegas 8 Pro to edit. Was a bit of a rush job as it was late and I just wanted to get it done lol.

Thats a good result on what sounds like quite standard equipment. I'm thinking of buying a video camera. I had a look in a few shops the other day and there are a couple of 1080p cameras out there for around $500.

Know the feeling. We are probably buying a new car this week so there will be few windsurfing purchases next year or any other toys.

Was that sailing in a river or a bay? It looked like you could stand out on a sand bar or something like that. Looks like a great spot to sail.

Hey Pat, great work with the filming, editing and production. Sometimes the best stuff comes for a hurried job. Its intersting to see the antics of Red's board when he eases the mast foot pressure. Thanks for capturing the days fun.

...and a gusty one at that. Unlike last w/end where the problem was getting knocked off your board in the middle of the channel by a gust, on that particular occasion the problem was you fell off in the middle of the channel becaues of a lull.
