Dunno I just wondered if you do StKilda to Sandy on NE winds would you do Sandy to StKilda on a SW wind?

Reverse DWers are possible but normally don't work very well.. and they get very very messy.. I wouldn't bother..

This vid was a revers run on a strong sou'easter from dog beach Brighton to Port Melbourne.. so it is possible..

A great SW run is Pt. Cook Coastal Park to Altona or Williamstown.
