Waves or freeride? I guess freeride by boards sizes......


This weekend in Pilbara? No sail.

Gero? 4.2 - 4.7

Lancelin? 5.0-5.2

Perth? 5.3

but that is not for GPS gee whizz fast stuff, maybe add 1.5m if that's your thang


the rest of the week? Who knows.



word.

I got caught last year ...couldn't hold the 5.0 .planning on buying a 4.0 -4-5 @ Gero ..something to thrash .

2 nd hand wave sails are a bargain there .
