EB would get your 12m fixed and bring that along with the 8m!! Cant believe the lack of wind so far this season (glad i didnt upgrade the gear!!) To many days with northerly or easterly wind for my liking need a good old southerly to come through!! We are getting seabreezes but nothing like they should be!!!

What seabreeze? Never seen a season like this. Blew 25-30 for a week and then nothing since. It has not been the usual summer and has not been warm enough to generate the usual seabreeze.
Can't wait to finish the house in the next week so that I can at least get out on the water over xmas/new year.

With 25 knots blowing all morning it can only get windier here should hit 30. The 12 is a pig off a kite when all you have used this seson so far is a 6m.Probaly tear a muscle trying too turn it.Fingers crossed that it comes good for xmas.
I'll try and pack some wind in with my luggage to help out the excess luggage fee.

no s.east yet only short gusty ne. then changes nw.west and drops. summer is cumin apparently. 30 knots last night ne to northerly on change gusty plus but got the 8metre rally out 6 till 8 getiing my head around deltas. I'm hope summer is not far away. Until the land warms up and we get some solid seabreezes the 12 will get a work out. Bring that wa doctor with you.

Was not going to kite today but had too get the new Kontact wet, nothing quite like walking out of the shop with a new stik and 25 knot seabreeze blowin and getting it wet and covered in sand straight away[}:)]
1st tropical depression affecting the weather and givin us cloudy windy days the rain could bugger it all up and i'm sure you will see it in Whyalla soon also.
Fingers crossed still can't wait for False Bay and the best of the West.

Would anybody from Whyalla have a link to that great video that was made in False Bay? It was posted here some time ago, but I can't find it.

Blew 25-36 on Sunday, had a massive kite at the point, fully depowered on the Rebel 7, waves were like glass over near the lighthouse, last one was way over my head. It was not a seabreeze, just a front passing through, but was great to get out on the water again.

Yeah went down to the foreshore twice on the Sunday in the morning ran for cover as the rain came through. Then couldnt get out in the arvo as too strong for my 9m (spewin from no wind to more than i need) no one down there anyway?? You have much company at the point Sunday or just too much for most!! Hopefully get a kite in on xmas day! fingers crossed
