Kyeemagh, NSW, AU

Stupidly rigged a sail that was too small for the wind at that time and also went out on too small a board. Slogged around for an hour or so then decided to at least get my bigger board. Slogged around on that for another hour before I decided I may as well rig my bigger sail. Did that and had a ball chasing Michael all over the place and doing some nice long downwind runs all the way to the end of the runway. Why didn't I rig this gear to start with!!!

Sailed until I could literally not hold on anymore as I had massive forearm pump. I think the damage was done with all the slogging I did early on in the gusty conditions. Good to see the big boys doing their slalom training with a blow in from Qld keeping them all honest.

Hope it's on again tomorrow, the forecast looks good!

Didnt look that windy & only had about an hour to sail so i figured i'd make sure i was powered up. Just wasn't fun.. every stink boat in SYdney must have been in pittwater, like riding through a washing machine with fun added weed thrown into the mix.

Like Rexie, rigged too small & suffered in the varying conditions.

Nice PB there Dave!

kurnell 20 kts ne , very choppy, manta 59, vapor 6.4m2, 32 talon.

Trekked up from Wollongong for a holiday treat.  First time in about 5 years I reckon I've sailed at BB.  Lovely to be on a normal fin and not the pre-requisite weed fin required for Lake Illawarra.  7.5 Gaastra Matrix, 105l hypersonic. 

I had forgotten how busy the bay gets.  In Wollongong, we normally have to try a few spots befor we can find a buddy to windsurf with!!

Great arvo only spoiled only by a broken boom, which was disappointing as the wind was starting to build and i was starting to get into the zone. Enter Michael Thomson who very kindly sorted me out,....thanx heaps Mike. What a guy, what a machine!(enjoy work today mate)

A quick switch down to the Talon fin and everything felt sweeeet as.(should have done that earlier) And doing it all again today,…..whoohoo!!

Lovely Day, well done Mike and Dave - huge effort!

Nothing startling, but I had great most fun mucking about with the wife who was out on the board for the fist time this summer.

Habib Skis are complete idoit w@#kers is all i can say! The have brains that are directly in-proportionate to their egos!
