Thanks snides.

unfortunately not, needs quite a big swell to work, most of summer it's flat.
But as it's a reef break, the wave doesn't change very much, best waves are like today, spring and autumn, when the winds are a bit light. A low wind board is a must if you want to get the best from this place.

Can be very entertaining, wind is lightest across the reef line, and the gaps in the reef aren't very big, but the waves can be!

Have you been a good boy lately????
Should I give you a clue?
OH all right, M stands for mob, and they come from WA.

Now if you can't work it out from that, you haven't been paying attention in geography.
So you can stay in after school and write out a hundred times,

I have a theory as to their absence.

The SRM participation has dropped of since the footy season started.

The Dockers are playing their best season ever (they couldn't really play any worse)

I reckon most of the team have got these games recorded and rush home each night to watch them over and over again rather than go out sailing.

Being a Weagles supporter like the Elder Statesman of the team we have watched the eagles have some shocking years in the past so we don't need to record them and replay them, we don't even need to watch replays of past grand finals to know the results So we go out sailing regularly (10 sessions last month best April ever!!!!!)

It's a theory, possibly not a good one, but it's the best I can come up with as to why there is on the Elder posting.

Waiting for a sensible question instead of your usual dribble.
But as it is unlikely that that is to much to be expected, here is your answer

My kids love watching the Weagles, although it was sad that Greg had to give his gig up. As for that no hoper Jeff, they should have sacked him years ago (he's always sleeping on the job).

I thought only old victorian women called them the "weagles"

Its been a pretty awesome april if you
a) have big gear
b) dont mind a lot of grovelling and
c) dont live in Perth.

Winter is coming... we'll be back when theres enough wind to do more than 20kts.

Hows the ribs going Chris?

Hopefully you're starting to mend and will soon be out and about again

At least with the doldrums you don't have the temptation to go for q sneaky sail and end up hurting yourself more.

Got to admit to being saved by a 10.9m sail and 160L board last month which has been great fun buzzing cruising around on

The ribs are fine now... I think most of the pain was caused by the air bubble because I was having trouble (especially lying in bed) for about 2 weeks, and then one morning all of a sudden it was almost 100%. Given that quick an improvement I dont think the ribs were dented much at all. Last time it took more than a year to get better... so when its blowing enough to get planing on my biggest sail (7.8m) I'll be out there... looking forward to the next cold front!

next cold front?? when was the last?..last year sometime..(i suppose early april was frontal..technically?[}:)])
good to hear the ribs are ok i reckon by the time this dam indian summer finishes
the ribs will be a distant memory ..........

back on topic..i think the M in SRM stands for 'mutants' after seeing the quality of the water the last couple of times out

That's good news Chris

At least with the lull you'll have been able to get into a bit of that work rather than being distracted by tree movement

Looks like our reign of terror has come back to reality with a wet thud.

Welcome back and congrats to the SRM

Don't look "up"
