:D :D :D Fun Times. Arrived at 8am blowing NE 10-15. Rigged the Severne 10.0m and by the time I had my suit on it was blowing 5kts. Marv showed up and we chatted for 45mins....then it started blowing SE 10kts. I went out and planed right away, nice and flat but all of a sudden it was blowing SE 15-18....NICE!!! Started getting lumpy on the outside with the Ebb tide so I came in to warm my hands up. Marv had gone for a coffee run so I came back in to hot coffee and an Egg Muffin...NICE!! Drank it down, ate it up and went back out while Marv rigged up his 12m kite. It was quite lumpy on the outside now blowing SE 15tks, jimmy and I did some playing in the waves and the it started to pick to 20+ so I came in and just then others showed Grant and Cammie and travelling fun-time vehicle + 2 littles, other various kiters, Morewind, Lawmandood, RD, BWD, DaMorb while it settled down to 10kts again...so I went out again, the calmness lasted 15 minutes when all of a flippin-dudden it was blowing 25-30kts....YIKES!! Limped off the water with some help from Windependent and Grant holding my 5m board which was acting like a sail. Packed up while others quickly rigged to get out for the high-wind stuff!! It lasted another 10 mins and then ended as quick as it came up. As I was leaving, so were the others.....day was over....Nice 2 hours morning session on the formula gear. Good workout and practice for racing this summer!! :D :D :D
