The beach was deserted. So where was everyone? Normally the lagoon is packed with up to 30 kiters.

Winds were light early on, shortly picking up to 18-20knots before dropping just after lunch.

Pictures coming shortly

Time alike this I wish I was at School, or Uni.

Doesn't help when the sun goes down at 4.30pm in SEQ.....

Someone should do something about the axis of the Earth and or the timezone we live in.

Picture the earth on a 23 degree slant, then look at the coast line of the Eastern Sea Board. South East Queensland get hits by the night first.

Slingshot have a wicked Foiling Flight School setup with different length masts. I learnt on that. Was pretty confident after a full days riding.

Just a heads up, lots of unmarked police vehicles up their atm, (white and grey). Just watch your speed through teewah and the campsite areas.
