After kiting for the last few seasons I finally bought some new windsurfing gear. I haven't had a sail in ages after busting some gear a few seasons ago. Got out today for a couple of hours. I was surprised I still sailed pretty well. Thought I was going to be a bit of a muppet !! Forgot how much I enjoy sailing. A bit sore but pretty stoked!!

The body doesn't forget, it just gets older and slower! Enjoy your renaissance.

That cutback in your avatar would look radical with a sail instead of a kite!

Yeah I never really wanted to stop sailing but after breaking some gear I never replaced it and just kept kiting. I had a ball yesterday I was really stoked so I think I'm going to love this season back sailing!!

Where did you go windsurfing? Are you planning to kite and windsurf? A few people do this and to me it looks like the sports can complement each other quite well.

I windsurf at Gerroa or Shoalhaven heads. But just went out on the lake yesterday to make sure I could still sail. I will still kite, I live in Wollongong so sometimes it's a bit fickle up here to windsurf.
