I'm hearin ya Hardie

I'm starting to get a nervous twitch in my neck and left leg. they both twitch at the same time and make me appear a little mental.
Plus, the long range forcast graph just keeps tormenting us with the prospect of upcoming wind, but every day that wind gets a day further away.
WHY DO YOU MOCK US LONG RANGE GRAPH, WHYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!

you know what i did for low wind..
which me sailing mostly on the gold coast, on the east cost is ****ing always..
i bought a 6.5m2 sail..
15 knots and i am going.. i am 80kg,, also get a board about 100L,,
its a pretty big rig but at least you get out there.
i recommend for a sail the neilpryde spirit.. its pretty good for light winds.. i got a naish, (oldish) but my buddy has a 2003 spirit .. get planing early. and easy and is really stable.. also the old F2 ride ..
277 are good boards.. and nice and cheap now.. for your light wind days. although the spirit is not a wave sail.. just sail a little more carefull and you be ok..

Mate, 6.5m is almost my smallest sail (6.2m). Just placed an order to reduce my autumn/winter blues (11.5m). Plan on blasting over Melville and Warnbro Sound in relatively flat conditions and negating those blues.
Go BIG and fully powered!

Hey Hardie

Just finished watching the Dockers wallop the crap out of your beloved goons Collingwood, at Home. Oh Well Ya can't help Bad Luck
Or Bad Players
Or Bad Supporters
Or a Bad Coach

I hope this result doesn't put you back into the feotal position, crying. I wouldn't blame you if it does though. You sounded like you're a man on the edge.

Respect

Your, Walking a very fine line younger,

The answer is simple. Buy a Formula and a big sail.

I weight over 100kg and was sailing flat out all day yesterday in 12-15knts with a 9.4 and a 7.8. I reckon a lightweight could get one of these puppies going in 10 knts. It's a really cool feeling flying on the fin over almost flat water - it's soooo quiet compared to "normal" sailing conditions.

GO BIG OR STAY HOME !

No me - the river is too gusty/smelly/slimy/shallow for my liking.
