Bloody nice day, windy, sunny & boardies Wink

Wind was up & down to start with, then changed direction and came in nice. Townsville boys were here again, they had to go as it came in, hope they had a good time. I think I have improved my NM a little, I know it doesn't look too flash but a NM downwinder at Yorkey's is fairly exciting, eyeballs like dinner plates. I wanted to get an extra hour in but the wind died at 4pm, was hoping for more K's as I think Herb was racking them up at Kurramine beach.

105L Naish Enduro, crappy freeride fin & 5.9 Loft O2 (great sail). 2nd time I can't get file into Google, bugger.

I'll get Cam's file in the morning, he was on a wave board & 5M wave sail and at Green again. Cam had hooroy from Brisbane for company.

Lyn and I travelled down to Kurramine Beach yesterday.    Had high hopes for today, but not to be. At least its warm down there.

congrats on the NM Firie, closest I got to windsurfing today was spending an hour or so repairing cracks in a board. Would rather be on the water in boardiesCool.

What is it about 30kts.....  29.99 is so close but i think again it shows going over 30 is not easy! (Except for those that seem to struggle to go over 35 conistently!)

Green island was a churned up mass of white water today -lots of wind lots of current -difficult conditions +++tried something different -hardcore wave 80l /5m alpha/mfc 25cm fin.Sailed the open channel but had a couple of harness flings at 30knots so backed off.Messed around in the waves in the afternoon .Overall good fun -waveboard suprisingly fast !!    Well Done Team Captain on a new PB

Firie, well done on the NM, thats good going in the conditions, holding it together for a full run isnt easy on the legs. CoolSurprised

You must be getting some fitness together, posting near on or over the 100k's a sessionLaughing

The board replacement ? how far away?
