Harden up Ya pussy. That's when a 17 gets fun. Weak as piss bail wind, you'll be right.

... 20 knots niiiiice one! Good to hear you mob are gett'n some! I suppose a grunty race kite would be a bit much for a surfboard for you light weights. Did you take a TT?? I'm sure one of the gang will lend you one??

Gezz thanks for calling me a light weight Robbie. Thats worth a Bintan.

Yeah theses race kites are a different animal altogether. Starting to get the feel of the new Bali quiver.

Spent the last 2 days at Occa. On past performances l'm due for a swim.

Dont own a TT Robbie.

I had to laugh yesterday when Putu told me that Ketut put fins on my skimboard i left with them last year. Ah well, as long as they are having fun.

... everybody is a light weight to me

Love Occa Point, love getting some right handers in the land of the lefts for something different.

How's the waves the last few days, decent? And how's the Slayer going, doing what you wanted and living up to expectations?

cheers,

Robbie

Hmmmmm, if the captain says harden up then get down to the local chemist and buy a pack of HTFU pills. He knows what he's taking about.

Sounds like you two need to get a roòm.

I like many, I have read Eppo stories but his got this one wrong.
Telling peeps to use a 17 in 20 plus knots is not good advise, regardless if its Bali or Oz.

Sounds like your a tosser as well.

Bugger all swell since we have been here. Only ankle slapers inside.

Yep the Slayer and VRX 2 are keepers for Bali. Both different to anything I've owned before.

You can have a crack when you get here.

Yeh you may be right, depends. Must admit, Elliot had his wind meter up one day, gusting to 29 when I was out there once. had to use my ass as a sea anchor...Wouldn't try this in other than piss weak bali wind of course...

Enjoy...

Hmmmmm, not a word of support from the ayatollah of rock and rolla. This casts a shadow over my continued corroboration with the captain.

Bit dissapointed in you guys, i was hoping to stretch the banter out for a few more days yet. Lol.

Guess i will move onto the next victim.
Lostinspace cant handle his Bintan and late nights. Went missing in action yesterday or was that lost in space.

Hahaha Haak, got no one to play with mate I would like to set the record straight it was Ice Teas mixed with some Araak that sent Lostinspace into orbit, not Bintang folks. But im back ready for a few million reentries on Occas Reef tomorrow in the 20kts thats forecast. Catalyst 12 and North Whip is at the ready!

Nah figured in the end you've always got the last ace in the pack.... You are in Bali kiting and I'm shivering my ass off in what has to be the worst winter for wind since I can remember.

Hmmmmm, a contradiction. A good analogy would be a upsized bigmac meal with a diet coke.

Just saying.

Depends on whats time you where on the water.
Tony was on his 19 most of the day, Col was on his 11 around lunch time.

High light of the day was Edgar throwing back rolls and railies.

Yeah that was a big effort Tony.

I was going to have a crack at night kiting tonight until a couple of local dogs decided my kite looked like a play ground. Nothing a sewing machine wont fix.
