    Day started with a good show put on by freestyle doods... well almost. Not quite enough in the wind department. lighter guys were OK, but most of the participants struggled. Anyway, the show was quite good, kudos to doods and the ladies!

    usual.... almost complete my first 360, lotsa tacks now it is solid port to starboard :D

    awesome day on the water, not just another one cruising around. up wind downwind race was great, nasty spill just before the first windward rounding gave me a black eye and lost me the lead. finished in fourth though. racing like that takes me back. kitercross is SICK!!! intense, fast, fully lit 10m. its an amazing sport.

    Start of Windfest! Fantastic work done by the organisers. Thanks for a great weekend!

    Raced slalom on John's big freestyle board and old Retro. Suffered upwind but had good speed coming back and even managed to hold off a few slalom guys. My final placing was not so stoke inducing, though, and had me wishing I'd not sold my race gear. Fun though!

    Later that day on the freestyle gear, I started to get more consisitent landing slidey vulcans and flatwater forwards. A breakthrough session!

Next race started well, first over the line, then a catapault and it all went downhill from there. Still, great fun. What a workout! Thanks to the organizers!!!! Yeah, Bobson for getting it rolling!!! Thanks also to the demo dudes for all the great gear ready-rigged. My non-final answer: *bd Combat ca 90 l meh, Mistral Freew ... (more)

    Took my first kite lesson through Elevation Kiteboarding. Marie was a great instructor and made learning easy. Amazed at how smooth the kite was (North Vegas) compared to the other 2 older kites I've flown on land before. The big OR Dorado was a stable platform for kooking back and forth across the lake and got me going upwind a bunch of times 8) . Managed a few low level dangly jumps. Having the waverunner right there took much of the stress away from learning and I kept getting great tips from an encoura ... (more)

    Headed over for 3 days of Windfest fun. Fairly light winds but enough to propel the 8.5 and GO and provide windsurfing joy. At about 4pm the wind cranked up a little and I took the Carve and 6.0 out for a spin. The boom slipped out of my grasp half way through and I lurched forward to grab it ..... that's when I heard the "pop" in the back of my leg! Class 2 tear of the hamstring muscle. Four weeks of rehab. :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :(

MTM had a nice 8.5 session in the build-up period, and in a blown jibe on the far side, he ganked a hamstring muscle (ouch) which got him off the water for the day. Windfest is in full swing, and the sound system can be heard from at least Franklin camp!!

    Ezzy Wave 4.2
    An epic day to end off a great trip. Started on 4.2 at 10:30 am in beauty swell but it wasn't as windy as it looked and the holes were frustrating so upped it to 5.0. Wind started to fill in again and switched directions making for great starboard ramps. Did one nice forward and then things went haywire and I was back up rigging the 4.2 for two hours of OP sailing in big gorge swell with lots of bone shaking chop and some harsh wipeouts on attempted port back loops. Absolutely, totally exhausted!

    3.00 hours Hi-Fly Move 95
    Sailworks Retro 6.0
    :D :D :D :D :D :?: A fine day of 6.0 sailing, tainted slightly by the fact that I had a brand new boom come unglued and leave me sitting in the water holding a spar in my hands while still hooked in. Fortunately, the other side of the tailpiece was intact, and I was outbound, so I quickly sailed back for a different boom and sailed out the session.....
