Hi, fellas Flipper here again, umm I would like to know Do Weed fins really hold up better if you hit a sand bar at full speed On the weekend I was windsurfing the Pit. While I was on a speed run, I hit a sand bay and my 30 cm freeride fin that I just brought back from Wa, ripped off like paper. This is my second time in a row breaking the same type of fin, so I am very good at it.. I bent my boom as well and bent me mast, so it was a good crash windsurfing is just like having a girl friend, it takes all your money So I dont know what to do I am getting really ticked off breaking so many fins And all the fins here in melbourne are 250 dollars, there not cheap wich makes me feel even worse

Kato did not tell me where the sand bar was hiding

I was windsurfing where this other dude is in the pic

Where is every one windsurfing this weekend?

The weather forecast looks to be a bit light for the weekend. There could be some wave sailing at Sandy Point if the Easterly wind kicks in. Keep an eye out on Seabreeze forum.
