Anyone up for a trip to inverloch on Monday?

BOM is showing 35 knots in the morning progressively dying off to 15 knots by the evening so there should be plenty of kiting in it for the day. Will check it again tomorrow but I don't see it changing.

ye no worries i have a car so can get down there, plz give me an update how u think its looking

other option for me is altona tomorrow if wind makes it to bay, much closer..

thanks

Ye that's my plan as well, stuff the long drives. Went to finders today was tragic

Thanks for lift Richard at least good conversation in car just no wind!

If you want to wait for wind then go to altona. Bom showing it won't hit until 3pm or later in the afternoon so you may sit around all day. Inverloch on the other hand will be blowing at 7am and the biggest risk is getting blown off the water by not having a small enough kite.

I'm leaving at about 6am from Sorrento so I'll be at Inverloch around 8am for a session. If anyone else is keen, send me a PM and I'll send on my mobile number.

how was Inverloch? saw a few die hards out on the Flinders CAM today, keen with all that rain

Gave inverloch a miss in the end. Woke up to pissing rain so check Bom rain radar and it showed it wouldn't be letting up for a while. Was planning to head to Balnarring if the rain let up but it continued pissing all day.

Might head out tomorrow if it's not raining but I don't see that happening. The place we are staying in in sorrento doesn't offer much in the line of kite drying so the thought of packing away a kite wet is not appealing.

I saw the pound creek wind reading; and thought hey, that's not enough wind for me.... went to sandy point surf beach- had my 7m up, and didn't stay out more than half an hour (the whole time i was totally de-powered). I don't have a windmeter, but I think the gusts were easily 40+ at times. In the end, would have been funner watching kiting DVD's in front of the heater.....

You wouldn't be far wrong. Check the Wilson's prom readings

na couldnt go on flat side bc was dead off so went on the pier side where was swells

might have gone on other side if had someone else there bc wind was pretty clean so would have been fine..

Will b there weekend after long weekend, hoping for good winds
Need to get back out on the water after exams this weekend and breaking my cheek bone playing footy last week!
