But at least it should give Aus the international category, surely the Northern hemisphere mob, will be getting frozen out soon.

Dont bank on us getting frozen out yet.....its quite warm here still.......no frozen hands and my toes are fine, they are the first indicators of the cold for me due to high doses of warfarin (blood thinners).
I was out sailing today with Norm Petty and he was just having fun on an old board that he 'must' get wet once per year which certainly isnt the sort of thing you do in the cold. ;-) I am quite jealous though, it seems this year had a very quick summer for us but the spring was fantastic and was hot from march through to the end of june.
KA360....Well said.....The reason I confined my comments to above 18 Yr olds is that I am no expert in this age group. The powers to be should take on some expert advice as to setting age groupings.
Sheartip its good to hear from you. I too could live with it if there were no age groupings at all.
Decripit, Good to see young Daffy join the Legends. Will make it even more enjoyable when Iam number 1.![]()
I was in you position when i stated Alex, i was looking at the individual rankings all the time and gradually climbing up the ranking list. The all time junior ranking is great as my targets were set out and have reached my goals quite quickly. Slowly my pb's are getting harder to get![]()
You will be flying on another good day at Sandy Point.
no i was hopeing to catch up but i think you was there for one day, i was with my daughter and grand kids , i ended up takeing out the finbox on my ca55 and sprung a leek in my custom, caught up with hoppy, cam and the rest of the guys, great bunch, ill be keeping my eye on the charts in our winter and if the gods all line up for a few days ill be up there , ill send a PM and let you know ![]()
Decrepit, you were a Legend before I was, so you win. ![]()
Hey hang on...... you win anyway.......... ![]()
But I'm working on it ![]()
Now where did I put my bag of Anti Inflammatory pills.............

Daffy agree about Alex, but you're looking at the legends overall, I've been building that result since the GTC first started.
You on the other hand have only been a legend since the last time I looked, (sorry don't remember when that was).
And this is where you are for 2011 after a mere month or so.

Thanks for showing the fantastic picture of Alex. I just showed my 7 year old to try and inspire him and get him interested....! Really great shot.
looking at it It does look small ....I WANT ONE ;-)
Alex's board is 32 cm wide and about 35 litres, an awesome looking waterski.
We are planning to get back to Sandy Point very soon,we had a fantastic time when we were there,cold,but met so many nice people.Victoria has a great windsurfing community.Alex has some unfinished business,30 knots is his goal.
Ninkinonk-I have been making a youtube video(search ahalank1) of Alex approx every 6 months since he got his first board for his 7th birthday.It shows his progress from when he was your sons age.Kids seeing other kids really help them believe it is possible.
