Quick after work session at 6.45 at Melville (the only spot I can get to after work before the sun goes down)

Yet still fantastic to get out, enjoy the water/wind/sunshine on my 9m. Rediculously gusty there tho!

Geez I must be a pussy!
Bullets late yesterday afternoon was the limit of my aged 7m on a strapped SB.
I thought conditions yesterday suited 6's and 7's.
Was keen to hear how the high end of the new 6 and 7 went.
Lots of talk and reviews about low end on these sizes but when it really matters will they give you the control to really ride waves.
Watched a 6m REO front of North Street it looked tidy in the sky.
Anyone have a 7m Relegion out known for its speed did you still have control in whatever the wind was yesterday.
The mornings before work have been good this week too.

Awesome day alright!! Set a never likely to be repeated standard for myself! I was first on the pond at six in the morning, then off to Augusta, I was the last one out on the river that night!!! What a massive day of carving!!!

hectic day for me,
downwinder from swanny to trigg on my 5m and SB.
snapped off an FCS fin in the first 200m,
kite dropped and rolled into a wave. my finger got caught between the chicken loop and the bar its now broken,
and saw a dozen old boys with their birthday suits on!

Solo downwind from Gero to Corro, choppy as all buggery, well overpowered on a 6m all the way, not that fun. Blown off the water at Corro. Need a 4m. Windsurfers sailing 3.5's and 40knots on the charts. GALE

Late session 5-7pm. I was on my 6m REO and SB and felt over-cooked. 70kg

I reckon would've been ok if I had a strapped high-wind SB rather than a regular surfboard.

Was out from 6pm til sunset on the unstrapped sb alone but actually didnt enjoy yesterday that much - thought the decent swell running was too blown out (kinda flattened it, all over the shop), was a tad disappointed by that.. Probably should have hit the flats and done some serious boosting..

Well, there's always this afternoon.. and the rest of the week! hahahaha

I was fully powered up on the 7 rebel at Melville on my Wam. A couple of guys were out on 12's no idea how they held on in the gusts.
Great session!

Oh yeh on a 9m edge. Had to grow bigger balls, well yesterday at least.

Well if you want to deal with snotty nosed know it all teenagers then go ahead.

Hey anyone watching the tennis. Janovic has some serious nipple action going on....just fabulous. Oh tennis is okay to if you dig women's tennis that is. Always wondered why they get paid the same and only play a max of three sets. TV rights probably driven by dirty old men like me watching the nipple action. Sorry ivanovic is the nipples one the other looks like an amazon monkey.
