Nice one team!

Was going to do the mission down to crab land but the lure of wave gear held sway... good to blow the cobwebs off the 4.5 

Good to see so many out! 

You could have wave sailed on the run today

hmmm appropriate name change there hardpole "old enough to know better" 

so that just proves it i've got an excuse to do stupid stuff

I did think of adding "and young enough to do it" but thought it was getting a bit too long. The bizarre thing is I actually still enjoyed myself.

Nice one lao, how things have changed huey can be cruel lol

Whoo hoo! What a day! Great PB JJ, who knows how fast you could have gone if you weren't still injured?

Great effort to clock over 100km in those strong gusty choppy conditions Mark, now just 221 km short of the 20 000 milestone and 61 km ahead of Vando.

OETKB, a great little teaser there, please tell more of the story...

and as for me... I got down to Melville at about 3.15 to find people just plodding along in about 10 knots, then two minutes later it had picked up to about 40 knots and there were boards blowing around the carpark and I had to sit on someone's sail to stop it taking off (and even then there was a risk). Another three minutes and all was calm again, nonplaning conditions. What to rig?? It was cold and choppy and so up and down it looked more like hard work than good fun, so still being a bit sore from Friday's effort I decided against it. Looked in at Pt Walter to check it out and it was windy and flat as... Very tempting but everyone had come in by that point and not wanting to repeat OETKB's affort with noone to rescue me from Claremont, I decided to go home.

Gear crashing and body bashing weather, so I elected to faff about on my cruiser in the shed. Then took Mother in-law for a run over to her brothers place, who's wife makes the bestest cakes. No wonder my gear no longer fits.

Great PB JJ, well done.

well done JJ- great team effort in Mother natures playground of sin and sand!

Congrats JJ 

You must be insane to do 100km in that wind Mark, I was stuffed after 20

There's a milestone to reach before somebody else does...

Nice speed pointy ..  Lao what happen to you I thought I would see you here! You missed a good session

Gr8 PB JJ must have guts for glory !

JJ grats on PB, well done:-)

What's the bet the shops will be receiving a higher number of enquiries on prices for smaller sails!!? 

Not bad going yourselves JJ,Pointman and Loa Shi! Lao Shi are you missing a board vent screw?

SOMEPUNK

good work tackling wally world guys... I thought about a double mission given how windy it was early on (and I was only 6 minutes away) but knew I'd probably just stay there all day if I started there. So conned Darryl to head straight down to SB. Looks like it was a tricky day for you guys- the bar would have been pretty square with the wind coming over that big hill (a bit like last time) making it horribly gusty and choppy on the bearaways.

Somepunk, yes I am, realised this morning a red anodised one.

Lightworker, I thought that the tide would be too low for S bay so went to Pt Walter. Three of the team there by 8am so decided to stay. Looks like I made the wrong call. I do not have the Lorch dialled in through chop and ate it at 35.5 yesterday (right hand is currently turning a nice shade of purple) so was not confident in taking on choppy stuff in those winds.

Sorry, Pointman. You would have been pushing 40 again down there from the sound of it.

Oh no, I hope you don't need a rest day Lao!

wednesday mission SB ? anyone? I might b tempted...

Good form Team, some nice numbers there!

Looks like im not the only one who enjoys a swim at wallyworld Jeff 

Hey Loa I've got a matching toe if you want to compare
