if any one is keen iam doing a downwinder this saturday. leave blue duck in cott at 3 and finish at brighton. if anyone is coming stay clear of the swimming area at city beach and avoid going between the 2 groins. if u are thinking bout coming and have never done one before it is better 2 be under powered as u are going down wind anyway. saturdays forecast is bout 20knts sw and 2 metre swell should be fun. so probally 10m kites. see ya there. BLUE DUCK COTT 3.00pm leave to BRIGHTON Ryland 0414721782 if u need a lift. iam getting the mrs to drop us off so i dont have to go back and get the car.

Can't make it on Saturday, bugger.

How about a little one tonight from South of City Beach groyne to Brighton?

Had a good one on Tuesday from City Beach to Trigg Point with Matt, Ben and Colin, a lot of fun.

They say the only Stupid Question Is the Question not asked .
And in learning the terminology i would appreciate if you could explain A DOWNWINDER I presume its a one way ride?

Maybe we should leave from Swannie (The nuddie beach of course) its only about 1km down the road

I'm thinking we may upset the ranger or Cottesloe gestappo, I dont think we are actually alowed to kite their??, this beach also can get real busy on a sunny day and 10-20 kites may be a problem

I'ld avoid the Blue duck area, and as Carl suggests start down near Swanny. The Cott surf club will spit if a whole lot of kites set up and kite from the most crowded family beach this area. Damo kites here, but never has created any issues. I'm all the nude perverts at Swanny will love watch Rylund & da boyz pumping up on the beach.

2 cartons to any of the girls doing the nude downwinder

The thought of you guys arriving at Brighton in the nude does not do a lot for me

I think the forcast is for a straight westerly on Sat??

If the forcast looks ok ill come along. Kiting nude has the potential to be very painful. A carton of beer definately isnt enough of a bribe for me.

Dont know if you guys do it or not ??
When we were white water kayaking we used to do :-
'THE CAR SHUFFLE '
Everyone meets at launch site - say 6 cars arrive with a couple of kiters in each car.
2 drivers take 2 cars to the landing site.
1 car returns to the launch site with both drivers.
Everyone gets to run the course then -
All 6 drivers return to the launch site in the 1 parked car.
All cars then return for the party at the landing site where all the passengers are usually 3/4 pssed already
Bit of a pain the Rs but effective & can make the day more of a cooperative group thingy.
( Apologies if you are already onto it )

AND poor old CODYs waiting for an answer ??? You got it right CODY.
A 'downwinder' is just a run from upwind point A to downwind Point B.
Just adds variety to the usual, ordinary, everyday 'in-&-outer'
It is also what some of still do whilst desperately trying for that usual, ordinary, everyday 'in-&-outer'

I am very patient
I lookforward to when i have the skills to get my ass out on the ocean and go on a run.
And as far as doing it naked ..no problem as long as it wasnt to cold......

I don't think you boys really want to see the girls kiting in the nude. To try and improve my leg tan I rolled the legs of my spring suit up as high as they'd go. The video footage of my thighs/butt wobbling along was NOT pretty!

what you think is pretty and what a boy thinks is pretty are two different things
