Great! We will def be looking forward to windsurf!

Lots and lots of snow up here at Charlotte Pass right now, bucketing down like crazy. Great powder, lots of offpiste, no crowds, no cars.

ian im of the belief that they are all along the sth coast, the ones you see wont be of any bother its the one you dont. never seen anything other than the odd reefy. how about you, your a true local. ive never been overly comfortable in sa waters especialy since that lad was taken tow surfing off of a suburban beach in adelaide.

its not a tragedy to die doing something you love, but mother would rather i play golf

Actually, there has be 64 fatalities from shark attacks in the world (total in recorded history). 17 in Australia.

Whats the road toll in SA this year? Scared of driving to the beach? Rest my case.

true dat, but not a nice way to go. only 17 fatals here, thats so reasureing considering probably half of those have happened in my lifetime and the latest in a winter month. not crapping in my wetsuit but cold shivers were felt when i heard the fate of the young father from pinnaroo.

Pilly,
15 years windsurfing prior to going to the dark side. 10 years kiting, 2 years SUPing yet to see Mr Choppy. If I do see one I reckon I will be the second guy to walk on water

Scotty Mac, congrats on the state title at Rippleton.
