It was friggen delicious...bravo BOM! Prediction was spot on....they didn't mention the horizontal rain though. Every time a drop hit my hat right near the ear drum, I was frightened first...like an explosion....thought I was being a node for the lightening.

No lightening though which was a nice bonus So much fun on the little baby kite. Was at Wood, inside bay..no swell, but smooth as butter Just need a bit more swell next time...only 4 out at Woodies. Conditions really pretty steady, not too gusty in fact. fun was had by all

Man, I love this sport........even on an ugly day.

Saw some lovely boosting by the younger folk.

How about that savage 150 degree wind direction change from NW to SW around 4:15 ?!?!

Gusts up to 48 knots recorded just before midnight!

Had cables inners to ourselves for a couple of hours...little waves coming through...good fun!
If anyone goes there, be careful of the reef. There is absolutely no sand cover so you if your not careful you may lose a few fins.

Cheers
