Hey Blownaway, That was me who tacked on to the end of your downwinder today, from Peregian onwards. It was good to have some company out there. Pity the wind dropped so much.

Yer, well, yellow turbo diesel.
That's some repair job. I think I remember a kite of those colours out today. Might have even been the one that went down in the break for a while today.

That would have been a worry with those recent memories.

That's awesome that the kite could be repaired.

Hey Echo, did you guys have a session on Sunday? I went out with Tony at about 10am from Redgate to the Boardwalk. Went out to the island etc. The swell was huge down our end and the wind pretty fickle. Had a few moments out the back but all round a fun session. How did you guys go? Bet you were glad you had yer 14m...

Signing out from Moranbah... not much wind or water up here.

Kited out the front of the Coolum Club house only 1 other out, came in after riping one of the straps right out of the board.

2 hours later the wind dropped, got the call for sunday, watched you guys from the hill at coolum to see you guys heading straight into a massive rain quall.
What a sight, looks like you just made it.
We counted 7 kites between Peregian and Taxi's place, then did the next best thing "Surfing" only creased my new custom board at 1st bay.
Yeah what a weekend....

Yea... as we got on the beach it started sprinkling as we reached the edge of it. Apparently there were a few waterspouts north of noosa from it too. Superb session though, good wind and swell the whole way.
