Yeah, Cloudbreak (did I get that right?) is notorious because it's so shallow. You can see several times that they are standing on the bottom when getting organized after a fall. You can't outdive...
Great last minute session yesterday, so enjoyable to be gloveless (water is still cold)
Typical up/down wind - had 4M, perfect in the gusts but needed 5.5/8 in gaps
Richard, glad you & Rhett got out before the squall line passed through. JB & I got out early at the Sailing Club with a strong, but gusty onshore wind. However, I windsurfed out of the...
BTW - here is a link to Sam Reynolds shop. The pocket wing is not yet for sale, but you can get on the waiting list. Just give him you email. He has applied for a patent, which seems like it...
I think JB and Barrett are planning for the LLSC this morning. The squall line looks pretty nasty on the radar so, for anyone going, be mindful of the weather and don't overstay your welcome....
Kind of surprised at the Dunedin turn out. Yes, Getting attendance at any sort of event these days takes some publicity. There are so many things competing for our time and attention that you have...
BTW there was a local race here last weekend at the Dunedin causeway. I wanted to race against other foilers, as they had 4 classes (LT, Kona, Beginner Sport, and Open Foil), but nobody else...
Should be interesting. I missed a chance to go today - there was a light SW breeze mid-afternoon. I won't be available tomorrow but I would be tempted. Just mind the radar.

Interesting looking kite. Guess I gave up on that idea too soon. Here's an IG with Balz using kites like the ones I made. He did better than me. He used a foil, instead of a WS board...
Are you sure it wasn't a flock of... oh, nevermind. The early 80s were an interesting time. I think I can play that key board part. Missed you guys but it was warmer where I was.
The secret finally revealed!

Dasher reports that Lac Bay is open again. The main portion of the spill went north of Bonaire. His comment is on our FB post.

Kuma Movie of Taty's from 11 days ago. Reminder what's going on there this time of year.
