    Arrived from Clover to what seemed a holiday, nice power 4.2, no waves...then crap hit fan. Grabbed 3.5, turned it into a 3.2 & held on :shock: Wind actually kicked down for a bit making me wish for the 4.2 but then came white smoke w/ a vengeance. Scored some awesome wave rides between gusts, parked during :x Jumping not an option ever :roll: Cold in the suit, warm hands tho go figure. Wicked workout, STOKED :wink:

    :D . Took an a hour to get dialled, then the wind steadied a bit. Started out really punchy with lulls and ended off just damn gusty. The inside was all hawaii: Smooth, bright turquoise and froth, most swell breaking well off shore, but wind quite light and holey inside. Steepest faces I've smaked yet - some nice vertical walls to push against. Last one out, everyone bugged out early. Kept warm due to a 7mm diving hood - keeps the whole body way warmer.

Scary gusts, banged around like a ragdoll but caught a few great waves & smooth planing gybes on long faces :twisted: One air went south, almost another impalement as wind gripped board :? Getting in & out trickey with slippery reef & log, clean water tho, no driftwood to speak of. Quit as it kept coming on stronger w/ me getting drained by the buffeting gusts, like getting dragged by a truck :x

    Underpowered in the lulls and nicely powered in the gusts at first. Then OP and had trouble keeping the rig and board in the water after falling. But what a marvellous feeling of being alive! Kus showed everyone how to sail white smoke. Gusts/white squalls visible way out by far reefs, they'd be hitting Willows just seconds later. Wish I'd had a camera with people leaning 30 degrees into wind standing on the sidewalk, with Kus sailing in background. Wow!

    0.20 hours RRD Cult55 Too small when light, too big when windy
    Neil Pryde Tucktape Special 4.0
    Decided to give Clover a try. Turned out to be the wrong decision. It was far too windy to sail, with very mean loggy shore break. Swam in and got washed up on the beach far downwind. Amazingly didn't break anything on me or my kit, except for a small ding on my board when it got blown around on my deck back home.

    So. . . be safe out there folks, heres a few of my thoughts:

    -Always make sure there is a safe place to land downwind.

    -Logs in the water are very dangerous, even small ones can easily b ... (more)

    starte off meh - mowing the lawn on no waves, then things picked up - a couple of waverides, one snappy forward, couple of almost sail-away backs, then it went south (literally) and I had a long schlog (77 l. don't schlog so well) and swim (all the while imagining the spousal wrath of missing my flight to P.G. "cause the wind turned off shore - it wasn't my fault!") and walk of shame. All in all a pretty lame last sesh for the year :evil:

Mostly slogging :cry: :cry: with a teasing wind that felt like it should be able to go - and it would have with a 7.5 and floatier board. Finally as it started to dusk the wind came up and it was planing weather :lol: :lol: . THe wind brought quite a bit of wood in for a slalom course.

    Good day today!

    Had to wait till it came down from 30knots to a mostly steady 20, but gusting upwards.

    No one there for a while so I got the local Police patrol, to come help me launch.

    He was excited to help as he is very interested to learn.

    Thanks officer ?

    Not to long after everyone started to show up.

    5-6 kiters 4-5 windsurfers while I was there.

    I came back in for a break, played in the waves for a bit.

    Then went back out till I was wiped.

    Solid 5m session, some super fast riding in the flat water when really powered up. Broke my bindings off though, which brought my session to and end quite quickly. Surfboard sessions from now on...

    Decent session yesterday as well, but rigged too small as I was being a little overly cautious since it was my first time on the water since early July when I injured my knee at dallas, so it could have been a lot better, had I rigged a 12 or so. Good to be back on the water though! :D

    kinda wonky and light at first, but Chewy made the ultimate sacrifice and went back to work which brought back the wind and the waves just kept getting bigger and bigger 'till dark. Fantastic day with lots of multiple bottom turn-cutback combinations, a few forwards and a few backies (including a couple of high gear-ejectors). Good crowd: windsurfing, janetfish, DWD, Law-Man, Chewy, G-wind, Dr. Paul, Gord from P.A. This has been a week to remember :D

    4.00 hours RRD Triple X 132
    Ocean Rodeo Bronco 16m
    Last day in La Ventana so I had to make it worth it. Only had a 16m or 8m since I ripped my 12m yesturday. Tried to be the first one on the water and the last one off. Kited for 2hrs took a long break then headed back out. During the second session, the wind picked up and I got way overpowered on the 16m, felt like I was flying a truck. Called it a day and headed in with a smile on my face.

    Time to head back North.

    Well, I ripped my kite today during a bad landing on a jump. I tried to re-launch but it was the centre panel that had ripped, so I ended up floating for a while downwind, thats what happens when you fly old gear. Not worth reparing as the repair job is worth more then the kite. Just in time to buy a new kite for Xmas.

    It was gusty today, lots of different size kites out...everything from a 16m to a 10m on the water. I still had fun, time to grab a Margarita :lol:
