Nice estuary session, wind was down to 12 sometimes and some gusts to about 22. Started on slalom board and 5.9 then to 6.6 when it eased off, then back on to 45cm speed board and 5.9 when the tide went out. Nice runs then and speeds ok for the wind strength. Hitting the bottom too much so had to pack it in. Plenty of weed wrap going on also.

Sorry Terry, couldn't do the harbour afterwards.Legs are poked after last nights bike ride and this lot today!

Not quite as much wind as Monday and a few holes. Great fun again though in the rough. Tried the 30cm Vector Rockit with the 104 S type and it behaved well. Looking good for Thurs and Fri. Might get a speed session on the Estuary guys?

Looking forward to trying the SL58 Terry.

Big k's Mike and good times in not so much wind. If its happening I'm heading to the estuary first tomorrow. Gotta crack at least 35 before my 50th surely!!

Yeah, it was quite nice but the weed really screwed it.So many runs were ruined when you slow down with weed on the fin. Might be nice next year when the poo pipe is up and running and the estuary isn't full of nutrients.

S'posed to be 25 gusting 35 nor'east tomorrow so should be good for 35 kts if it happens.

Terry and I off to look at Charteris Bay at 9.30am if its blowing by then.Try and catch it on a rising tide.I've seen it once on a rising tide with low swell and it was real flat and fast. We have flat swell forecast tomorrow so could be the story. I reckon it's the only place to go quick around here ...besides Dinx Strip.

Good turn out team......I have Dan's data but the time and file settings on his new GT31 are wrong so the file was gibberish.

SO, the only 'one eyed' piker was Glen......where were ya ??
