Hi,

Looks like there would be a nice breeze tomorrow! But the wind is from the west, swell goes up to 4M, is this wind direction a problem? Than maybe i better can go to Woodman's Point.

Thanks, Rens

Hey Rens,

Scarborough in a 4m Swell with a Westerly wind is a tough ride. You will need to be a very good kiter to even get out through the break. Unless you consider yourself to be of a very skilled level, I think you will have more fun at Woodies.

Good winds,

OzFan

Go north, and come back at Chritmas.
