hay paulio went back out at shear no change in fact worse the wind swung to the east. The wind must have been driving in and hitting the bank. Man i am thinking about a job change i just gotta do something that gets me out earlier in the afternoon cause it never &%$#@ blows on the wkd. Maybe i could get a job as a rep for fitzy. See if i can move some of those kites[}:)]

Just joking folks he does not have a shop and certainly does not need to sell anything- except for a knew 125... hardly used.

Rode at brighton today, must say they have a great spot. All helpfull guys and some awsome wind made it a good(allways better when your boss gives u $20 hr to kite), the waters got a funny colour (must use a different dye than our blue) which is good when u cant see the stingrays, bad when your coming down hard and you dont know how deep!! Thanx Brighton

Hey Paulio

Maybe the wind was extra strong today and you were responsible for the water colour at Brighton.

Tell Richo I sold the board to Runaway Bay Marina as a boat Anchor.

See you out there tomorrow. I want to try some more downwind hot launches.

wow you 2 just have it so sorted. I am stuck here perhaps, i can squeeze in a friday lunch session. If the wind stops at sat 2.00 pm again i am going to just spit the dummy. i have been sitting here watching the wind blow all week starting to piss me off

Should have seen len fox yesterday a big wind came in and caught a few off gaurd. I was running down the beach in work clothing (just stopped by for quick chat)after a 60kg japanese dude under a 13m getting dragged down the beach while his kits was at 12 oclock. Apparantly he had only one lesson previously. He is lucky he is not. Erick and his son also had adventures, his poor son was being dragged up the beach with line wrapped around his feet. In his defense the little bloke was doing well and correctly pulled his release when it got nuts- he was just very unlucky... and very lucky someone got to him. it was so strong for a bit. Kites were hitting the deck all over!!
I was glad for once to be spectating

Hey Paulio good to hear you enjoyed brighton, I've kited lotsa spots and on the whole it's pretty sweet. We've come to the conclusion that the brown water/sand colour is a good thing, it keeps the beach clear of kiddies/swimmers/jetskis etc. Sometimes in mid summer the water is blue tho, jellyfish blue! It's so thick with them that patches are more solid than liquid, it's a terrible sight when you're coming down all twisted up and you're wearing boardies...

The best at Brighton is at mid tide when you go into the pocket to the right of the kite beach, you can ride in butter smooth 10cm deep water, lay out flat backwards and drag one hand, and go so fast you're overtaking cars and hotties rollerblading down the the boulevard..
