Shaved the Beaver today for the first time in what must be about 4 years, bloody hell I've missed that place.
Had a late finish today in Kwinana so I planned ahead and hooked up the trailer before I left. Got down there around 4 to see more kites than I've seen in a long time, scarey thing was there was a hell of a lot of muppets amongst them dropping kites left right and center.
Wind looked strong so I orginally went out with the speed board but it was to painfull to get going so went back and got my 65cm speed board out.
Yeeeeeeffffaaarrrrkkkkeeeeennnnhhhhaarrrrgggghhhhh It's been a long time since I've sailed in wind like that, Fark it's been a while since I've gybed overpowered in open water to, that ended in my usual muppet fashion.
Out at the end of the sand bar took a few runs to get my bearings and to start figuring out how to train the kiters to avaid the fat grey headed mad muppet who doesn't look where he's going, after a while the got the idea and started to look around and applied the brakes when I came screaming down the run with no semblance of control
Was having a ball out there, couldn't figure out the right line but it was fun just hammering down there.
Great watching Mr Boat and Snake flying around, Snakes got an amazing upwind technique which is something to behold. The bigest smile would have to have belonged to Ricey who was giving his PB a kicking
Took a while to remember how to set the board up for speed instead of slalom, but fun tweeking ti get it to work better.
Only one moment with a kite when I thought I was farked 35knot run down the sand bar, the teabagger decided to stall gybe and swwops her kite right down to the water, couldn't flick it up wind without hitting the kiter couldn't go further down wind so just screamed like a little biatch which got their attention and just managed to get under the lines.
Great session, fastest speed since the 1st December 2010   
Lotsa fun     Yeeeeeeffffaaarrrrkkkkeeeeennnnhhhhaarrrrgggghhhhh
