Anyone interested in a paddle this afternoon ??

(Dad's gone back to the Goldie, and now I have a free afternoon for a paddle....)

Given the distinct lack of swell today, I was thinking about a distance paddle on the Barwon somewhere.

2pm or 2:30pm is a suggested time.

Hey Simmondo,

How much fun was it today?

Had to laugh at you drop in mate 3 in a row lol ah well it wasnt sheep stations.

Kristi hasnt ridden that longboard for about 4 years I was amazed she could even stand on it. Shows how SUP improves your stability i guess.

You , Kristi, Rick and the others certainly all got your fair share.

Was a pleasure to watch.

Thanks Phill !
To clarify, yes I was dropped in on 3 times, but I told him after that !!
Can't wait to see him in decent waves like Bells someday, I'll fade him one or twice on a proper wave !!
Really fun little waves. Far better than I was expecting, and the wind dropped right off too.

PS - I bluntly told him, "I haven't dropped in on you. I'm not taking every wave. I'm sharing, and you've dropped in on me 3 times in a row". He claimed to have had some 'bad experiences' with SUP's lately, and he did apologise. He didn't do it again either. Just as well, because I was prepared to slam my paddle into his shiny board!! I'm in the market for a new paddle too!
