    :D :D :D Fantastic session!! Arrived to Sun and 25kts so I rigged small. Rain squall went thru and killed it for 5 minutes. Then sunny and warm and 20kts with gusts to 25ish. Played around in the bay mostly but made a few long runs waaaaay out near the tall ships that went by. A great day to be out sailing. Too gusty to head up to Kook but saw lots of tiny sails up there. Super day!! :P :P :P

    big!
    2.00 hours
    Went to Maui for my brother's wedding...which meant not many chances to sail plus the wind was only sailable 2/7 days.

    I started off at Lowers...I am not sure at this point why people sail down there. I think b/c the swell was so big it was just closing out, combine that with some up and down wind...anyway I had a pretty good swim.

    Regrouped my thoughts and went where I should have been the entire time...UPPERS!!!! Uppers was easily logo to mast high with solid 5.0 wind. No big airs or backs or a ... (more)

    I probably shouldn't log this but I was out on the windsurf board and we've been talking about SUP. Fun first time, worked on the glide, went about 4 km with little trouble didn't fall off until at the end when I was trying stepping back on the board to spin it. Did a bunch of 360s without falling, then fell. Lost my glasses as a result :cry: Gotta check the tide tables, at least I know where they are. what a doofus. Looked for a sports strap that had disappeared, only one contact. No spares or spare ... (more)

    BWD summed up the session well. He's a planing machine!! I was wishing for a bigger fin and lower rockered board in the lulls. Fun to sail with DWD as well; he was gettin' all grubby and was tossing vulcans like they was nuttin'. Enough of the marginal stuff already :x Nice to get out though!

    Fun session! Kinda gusty and cold on the hands, but no complaints about wind on a weekend. Up to 25kts for a short bit, but generally 15-20 making it perfect for the hollow boned. Doc and DWD working on grubbies. A good day to try some of the old school tricks again. Tried a few lame vulcans and fwds.

    6 degrees is too cold for April. Wind really up and down, went from schlogging (gliding :) ) to OP on a flat 5.8. Started with gloves, blew out the forearms, then left the gloves off but higher wind and a big cloud made my hands too cold to feel anything. Sooo close to planing out of a couple of gybes. Sailed with BigD and Anthony on their GO boards.

    Arrived with RD a bit late to see Adrian and Dave chilling out on the beach in the warm sun. Damn, missed it! Waited a while and Piper's came through with some fun (but marginal) 5.5 sailing. Tried 5 grubbies in the best puffs and came the closest yet to pulling one off (waterstarted out of my second one). The other attempts were like ultra low forward loops, but the sensation is cool. For those of you too afraid to try forwards, try learning grubbies first! You'll inadvertently pull your first forwards saf ... (more)

    A bit more north in the wind would have been OK, but a fine big gear day in the sun. Janetfish made an appearance otw, and had an OK time Go/6.0. I tried the 111/7.5 three times, but the low end of the wind range seemed to keep me sllllooooogggging at each attempt. GO/7.5 was the right combo. Nice!!

    Really South at cook, but very very consistent wind. Not much chop out there so was easy to push speed a bit. Perfectly Lit on 14m kite, but reminded once again how much slower the bigger kites are in the sky when i tried to pop for jumps. Rode till my hands couldnt grip the bar any longer, great day. :)

    EPIC! (if it was 20 knots windier). Lots of kiters ripping it up. I had to pump like mad to plane and had time for one quick vulcan or grubby (getting closer!) attempt before losing speed. Good workout though! Hands chilly, can't wait till temps increase a bit!

    2.50 hours Slingshot Misfit 128
    Best Nemesis BLUE 10m
    Started out fully lit on 10 for about 2 hours of rippin, then just turned lully, gusty, churney and unpredictable. came in to get on 20 meter lines for a little easier handling on the 10, wind decided to jack to 35 knots and the 10 minute kite landing was on.
