Lokking at the Sydney wind meters right now confirms that Sydney is a hole!!! Sucking all the bloody wind into it
Its true Mt Float, all the wind did get sucked down here tonight, I got on the water about 5.30pm, kited in approx 10-15knots till about 6.30/7.00, the wind actually built over this time which was good as the tide really started to flow in by then.
Got to test the new 06 FLX 1.52x44, it is so much better than last years, you have to get one!
Used the 16 SB again, its almost the only kite I need these days. tried to get over to Kurnell, it was quite a bit stronger over there by a few knots, but it seemed to be more North the further I went, ended up just doing speed runs and jumps in front of Towra, had a great stack on the way back, going real fast hoiked the kite back could not get it back, ended up landing backwards, then kite looped the kite and got launched and dragged backwards some more, then did it again then I remembered to push the bar away, kite stopped pulling doh!
Started body dragging back to my board, then realised i could stand up, the water was knee deep, 2nd doh!
Great session to cap off the last of the daylight savings after work adventures.
