Yeah it was a bit marginal in Gero on the 10 but the wake style boys on their 14 Vegas's were going off. As you pretty late in the season for a sea breeze! Not complaining but.

Wasn't quite kiteable but today and yesterday we had sea breezes up here in Exmouth. Been a strange few months of unseasonal weather, I think we are heading for a ripper season

These sessions have been a true seabreeze, warm inland temperatures bringing in the seabreeze, I was overpowered on my 10 , it really felt like summer was on its way, but were in the middle of winter, the shire digital board read 30 deg, if you had a big kite youd of been out a few days a week if you had a foil youd of been out more often than not, generally its a sign of a dryer winter which in my records means a summer of lesser winds, but lucky for us we live in the Midwest so that means 25 knts not the usual 25 to 30

Got out on Friday at mullas 16/18 knots water was pretty flat compared to summer winds but there was a few big dumping waves kept coming through got caught,,,, now I know what the washing machine effect feels like and for those of you who hate helmets it was a good job I had mine on I felt my board crack down hard

Well Matt if you will attempt a high double back roll with flair and land upside down, back to front and boot less then there is a price to be paid! Haha.

Wish Id had a camera for that epic jump!

You WA guys are making me sick!
We've had hardly a decent 20knot day in months. Just 12 to 16 or a little more and that's it.
****ing QLD is ****ed!

Just fly your kite completely unhooked to get "max power" out of it.
