glen mcfarlane, park paul, scotty o'connor, carl doran, the list goes on

Wait, wait, wait one of those names doesn't fit?

What about Oneknot...he's got just as many trophies as he does fins.

PS - for everyone that knows me, I am now the proud father of a future ripper by the name of Kai. He was born 4 weeks early but still a cracking 7 pounds 2 ounces.

Next few days look like good sailing.

Brien.

Awesome news Brien. Congrats!

merimbula, longest continuous running wavesailing event in the world, 28 years I think.

I could be wrong, but I think the Robe Easter Wavesailing Classic in SA had its 30th Anniversary earlier this year!

Congrats Brien, Hope mum and bub are doing well and you have had a celebratory drink or two mate.

On the Monday

Have you seen any of the sailors that your commenting about in the water lately? All the guys that are winning at the moment are ripping and would give the good old guys a real run for their money.

You need to get away from the past and witness what is going on in the water now.

Yeah,
I was riding a single fin and I come 5th. Just shows ya, Dan is right, those twin fins are the shiz...

To true PC.....Jetsam I think its time to reveal yourself mate - where do you sail and and where are you from? - or are you too scared... No need to rag on pykie he f@#king rips!

Sorry, can't fade into obscurity while you're being so unhelpful.

Peto, you must be one of those slow people I tried to help, which bit of "well done Pykey" don't you understand? How do you blame a person for winning (or even losing)? As for my identity, do you know what "play the ball, not the man" means?

As for Newcastle, there's a few good sailors there, better than Pykey, but they're all second rate.

I don't want to put Pikey down cause he's done nothing wrong, quite the opposite, but since you lot are so argumentative let's examine this: when Pikey was at his peak years ago his most common result in the NSW rounds was to lose his first heat, though I think he was better than that, more of a mid fleeter I'd say. I don't recall him ever being among the placegetters. He certainly never looked like getting a mention at the Mambo back then. Then he goes kiting for years, then is off with injury for the last year, and it sounds like he was using borrowed gear. What am I missing? Has he put on an extraordinary late career improvement like I've never seen anyone do? Is he ANY better than he used to be? Is he even as good as he used to be? What maneuvers was he pulling off that the rest of you weren't? Or what was he doing better? How about McKercher, former world wave champ, how did he lose?
Dan, reading between the lines I suspect you don't agree with the judges, what does anyone else who was there think?

told you hed come back whenthere was something stupid to say.
ps. dont get me wrong, great guy.

What a surprise, not a single attempt at answering any of my questions, just a lot of childish name calling. I wonder what you're scared of

If you still can't manage that, how about explaining why you're all so upset over nothing.

P.S. I wouldn't normally question a person's orientation, and like everything else that you've said it's irrelevant here, but since several have seen fit to question mine, I can't help noticing how extremely ... precious you are towards each other. to you all.
