Haven't been out in a few weeks, so:
Knocked off a bit early yesterday, sweet run home through the Gateway debacle, grabbed gear and walked out, pumped up, on water before 5, kited until nearly dark. Fun sess by myself between Sandgate and Brighton, only two mild jelly stings, too awesome
.
Outlook on life improved considerably.
... yep, I whole heartily agree.
Me, I got 3.5 hours late yesterday with waves and a beer with mates after, yep the world is a better place now!!!!
Two thumbs up! ![]()
South East Queensland has plenty of options on kiting locations
Kirra- seabreeze northerlies Sept to late Dec perfect clean clear water
Gold Coast- South Easterlies long downwinders
Sunshine Coast - Northerlies & South Easters
Brisbane- Sandgate & Brighton, perfect place for noobs
and some very secret locations
But if you get skunked- There is plenty of birdlife to look at especially at Narrowneck![]()
Looks like you may have PLENTY of wind over the next few days!!
