Pugy, don't treat hardie too harshly on this one, it might not be his fault, there's been a few instances of false double posting lately, I think it's a site bug laurie hasn't got on top of yet.

This is my second season now and I remember the first days I found my true love. In the beginning there's moments of frustration but so much fun too. You need less wind and the feeling of progressing is constant.

Hope to see you around Manly Smiles.

Haircut,

GREAT to see you down at Manly, shredding it up in what little wind there was!!.

Keep it up.

Sailed by you a few times on a Naish Redline. Saw Nitai out as well.

We almost had great speed conditions but the wind failed to show up.

Haircut, did you have a light blue board also?

Yeah SAturday was good enough for me. A bit patchy but some spots where great. I've gotta do something about getting sore ankles though. I must be doing something wrong.

Anyway, hope to see you out there soon Smiles.

Just remember Smiles, you cannot overdose on the drug 'Planing'. So indulge often and welcome to the club.

Hi DrJuka and Nitai, sorry for the delayed reply. Yes I had the light blue board too. I really like it there on a SE as it doesn't seem to get quite as choppy as on the NE. Was unfortunate the squall didn't stick around for longer, but was still fun will definately see you again up there

Leesa, I thought your name was Holly? Are you the lurvely one I met at wello, and then I followed you to vicky point to sail during winter/spring last year?
