Wow DJ that's some serious open water when you get near chelsea heightsWhould you go straight across like you've drawn with the arrow or do hug the coast line a bit more ?

Danny I think we'll go pretty straight..Well straight from Rickets to Frankstone..maybe a slight curve.

We need a true Nor'wester..If it too much North in it it'll be mostly paddling on the right side only.

We're hoping for a good 30-40 knoter..As we get towards Frankstone the swells should be huge..

Only trouble is that every time I try something like this I seem to end up with a headwind both ways!

Don't you hate those 'double headers'. I always seem to manange that too.

D.J what board are you gonna use , will you have your new Glide buy then?if i was living down that way id be in for sure.What about a circumnavigation of Tassie that would be fun you could call into shippies and catch a few bombs(LoL)

Hey DJ, seems that we are in for a week of southerlies but it wont be long till we get the magic day. I'm ready

Thanks guys..

"D.J what board are you gonna use , will you have your new Glide buy then?"

Teatrea I've been using my 11'6" and it seems to work fine (cos I don't know any better).. I will not have my new Naish Glide till the end of November.

I've heard they're selling fast..real fast..and prices continue to go up..So anyone thinking of getting one should cement in an order..and also anyone is welcome to try mine when I get it..(can't wait).

Jake we do get runners..heaps of them..some just seem to go on and on and I just can't help but laugh out loud.. ..and do a big Woooh!!

Hey Stuey I better not try one of your boards..I might like it too much..

So we have Jonathan and Dave so far..anyone else game?

The guys at SHQ are going to let us use their new SUP Downwinder Van..

So the idea is you drive to Frankstone and I pick everyone up in the van..Boards and all..and we drive to St Kilda.. We all do the down winder..and then someone drops me back at the van.. Sounds like a plan..
