I do love the wall on a good north westerly, but kitesurfing a few metres away from a humpback whale at Westlakes Shore was pretty awesome, too.
He or she stayed on the surface and watched the kites for a few minutes before moving on.
Is that nasty piece of mesh still there? On Friday 2 kiters tried to move it with no success. Another guy was gonna ring the council and ask for help. If it's still there I might email the council, alert them of the danger and offer to help remove it if they can get a 4wd down there to pull it out.
Failing that I might attach a buoy to it next time I'm there so at least we know whre it is?
yeah its still there
cant see it when the tide is in but you cant miss it on low tide
marine & harbours r aware and r waiting for the storm to pass before they get it out or attach a buoy, a couple of people have notified them so they r keen to get it out, half a chance for thursday so hopefully before then.
Should SAKSA events be mobile like surf comps to take advantage of the best conditions? As i agree with Saffie the wall was great fri-sat
