today was epic! it was good to see so many boards out :)
im so glad i did couple time yesterday, today was honestly the most fun i have had in a long time, and definitely the best windsurf i have ever had. heaps of fun was had and i met some really nice people also.
Big thanks to the guys who helped me set up my gear and gave me a few pointers, and thanks to jasper from WA who sent me a fin early last week. You guys have helped me bring my best speed from 29.90 to 33.60.
who else managed to get out today and what sort of numbers were you guys seeing? :)

i think its more like 13-14 now. i met david when it was my 10th time out. so yeah 14th i think haha. are you the gentleman who helped me out?

yeah i had one really nice run between the break wall and the runway where all the cop seemed to disappear. this was closely followed by a rather spectacular (and painful) catapult resulting in a broken batten. I might try repair it this week so i can go again next week end.
thanks for the link, i might grab some this week. once again thank you for all of your help.
today is by far the fastest i have ever been so I'm keen to go try again. I'm thinking i need more weight haha!

not a bad sail - had some fun blasting in the gusts and some great carve gybing in flat water. There was some huge hiles out there tho - at times i was holding the sail up there was so little wind.

Highlight of the day was my close call with a Jetski going flat tack up towads the river. I saw him at last second and had to bail to avoid getting hit. sadly i didnt get his rego number.

Hi Bryce,

We chatted about GoPros. Yeah yesterday was pretty good. It was gusty though the wind filled in as time went on but was never really consistent.

Good to see you teaching your friends to windsurf too. If you are teaching people to windsurf and I'm around you could borrow my wife's board thats on the roof of my van. It will make teaching much, much easier.

I think on my 14th attempt at windsurfing it would have been on Port Stephens and I was rescued by a bloke in a tinny after being blown onto the oyster leases.

it was good to finally meet you mate! next time your going for a sail we should tee up a video session.
haha! the guys i were teaching i sail skiffs with, it was there first time out and to my surprise they did extremely well. they are both buying gear so we will have another 2 boards to have drag races with soon :)
I'm still buzzing from yesterday, it was the best sail ive had in a long time
