i was thinking canton
need it to be close to home on saturday ( cant be late to my own birthday party
)
Not sure as the forecast wind direction is swirling around everyday. It will be hard to know with a low pressure system.
I was thinking if it goes NW apparently theres a speed spot up the entrance way near canton. If west Canton or narra lake
Sunday Canton for sure.
See u out there boys n gorls
Wysey
Canton I think..If it blows N on Friday maybe Marmong or Valentine..If it blows 30kts I won't have a board I can use as I dont have a weedfin for my 78ltre..![]()
So can you stay in flatwater in Canton with NW - W winds?
Wheres this speedstrip and is it crosshore or..?
Grr Id love to go out 3 days straight ![]()
but I think after 2 weeks + off the body will die the next day..( headache).![]()
North Entrance at the ex Co-op for the speed channel. Sail in the channel if the wind is w-sw. Very smooth![]()
Wouldnt mind heading to canton or some were on that lake .. Only got weedie for the 50L speed board :) hope it blows
Thanks. Billy Boy I hope there is some sailboarding equipment on the birthday list ..or $ towards some..![]()
last weekend was great birthday - got a harness form bill and moby gave me some harness line and 5m sail not long ago
hoping the parents get me a wetsuit hoodie and the wife get me a weed fin
i just want better weather so i can sail more
Went to Canton today & too N ly..Found out about the co op and sailed there.Locals telling me how to avoid the shallows & sounded more effort than worth it but it was great! 5.8m + 125 board & too much scary.. 95ltre + 5m & great! Flat water certainly makes it easy. ![]()
Mind you the chop down there is very steep but that makes it great for jumps! ( need to work on those..
).
See how the body goes tonight
maybe have another go at Canton tomorrow.
The W is howling through up here..
got down to kurnell about 3:30 this arvo and the wind was cranking. Only me out and about 20 Kiters.
6.2 was fully powered up and only had my 118 super sport so was having to work hard to keep it down out in the middle. Awesome flat water for gybing on the inside tho :)
Heres hoping for some more fun Sat and sunday

staying postive thinking about weekend 2x rate and all the toys I can but with it.
going d to Fiji and new Cal next week. guess I will catch up with you guys in June.

canton first time was great .. 50l speed isonic n 5.2m was great untill wind dies and walk home thru waist deep weed 300m .. thanks jonnie and peter i think for the fins .. cantons the winter version of summer in sand islands
Apparently on my one run with the GPS I did 27kts..That was on a beam reach- better than my other 20.5...and don't feel too bad today!![]()
Went out off Neilsen Park, a little light and gusty for the first 50m then blasting. 5m2 and a Goya custom twin waveboard, a little on the edge a few times but lots of fun.
