A 14 would have been perfect at St Kilda this arvo chap, you could have gotten a Blackhawks view of pit lane.

Hi Elena,

welcome to Victoria.

I'm 68 kgs and use a 7m and 9m, so I'd probably recommend either a 6m/8m or a 6m/9m combo.

Winter & Spring can dish out some pretty strong winds.

A 4/3mm or 5/4mm wettie is also another essential. It can get very cold at times!

Cheers
