Keep Dreaming, I know I am.

I'd be happy if it came out of the NW as long as I can get out. Half hour of quality time is all I'm looking for.

Do you think there is still a chance of a latte today? The forecast was looking good, but now it looks like the clouds may have destroyed the chance of a decent coffee!

There are a couple of kites up at South Narra/Collaroy, I hope they realise they are missing out on lattes.

hah yeap! Tell me about it!....

Brissy certainly isn't any better! Our forecast for 20-25 made on Thursday for Today, move to 10-15 increase 15-20... Needless to say that 15 knots didn't even hit till 3pm and wasn't worth it....

Morning sesh for the hopeful 15-20 and 20-25 knots! Before it disappears at midday!.....

Well all i can say is, "i'm glad today has finished as i don't think i could've kited anymore!"

What a wicked day here on the southern end of gold coast, got out about 12:30 and didn't get out of the water til 5ish! Got a solid 15-20knots plus all arvo.

Did the funnest downwinder inbetween all this to .

Must have had something to do with my Birthday today, or i've just been a good girl!

Finally a sweet fun NE seabreeze, strange in the middle of winter. Didn't even have a wettie on

Are you SERIOUS??? We spent all afternoon at Narrowneck with nothing but 15 minutes of ridable wind! Where on the Gold Coast was it blowing???

Lucky Angi!

I'm EXCITED....

If the 17-21 knots at Cape Moreton holds up for most of the night, it looks as if my plan of kiting in the morning will happen!

Was only about 10-12 knots at Miami, so must have been at Cooly?

From the BOM observations it looks as though Lennox / Ballina had the best of the wind - 15 to 25 knots all arvo.....

Yep i knew there would be no wind from miami north on the goldie. We were further south, and it was rockin, all could hardly unhook on our 12m kites. Big jumps to be had from north palmy all the way down to currumbin.
Got a mate in byron and they got a solid 4 hours of riding in aswell.

Looking good for kirra now, so i'm heading down.

We must be a little soft in Newcastle wind only just topped at 52 knots. Still it was fun while it lasted.
