Second sail since I broke most of the important components ()in my left foot in early December. First time was 10days ago ish, just flat water croozin with EVO92 and 6.1 Simmer Vision in about 16-18.

Today thought "yeah it is flat and not too windy" so went for proper wavesail. Only about 16-20 so again on Evo92 and 6.1
Waves were average knee hi so nice n safe but it was cross to slightly cross off so a perfect day to see if the foot would hold up.

No probs, grovelling out and planing in with soem careful waveriding.

Then it picked up (wind and swell) so had the opportunity to have a real go at it. Took one that was shoulder hi and peeling for once (winter westerly wind n wave direction in Esperance usually doesn't peel much) ...... got 3 bottom turns driving it as hard as I could and no pain. I'm back

We can hear you grinning from here
Good stuff, glad you got a good run in with no suffering.
Looks like we both had a win this weekend, I stepped down from a 130 to a 94, first time I actually had a good run at it.
Got some help/tips from a few of the long timers last week. All worked a treat. Had a bloody good day and was saying zackary what you was saying when I came in

Great to hear you're back on board!

The wait was totally worth it to have a full recovery.

Would love to, especially as I have a new "bigwave psycho wind" conditions board ........ but no hol's then
Will be in perth for a week then so it'll be windy in Esperance

for me, Gnaraloo Sept - Oct 2008, got long service leave then, and we now have an option of taking half the length on double pay (hell yes, 6 weeks of sailing with no expenses spared is enough surely)

you been giving me ex missus a bit of action lately? she would have gone off on Monday wouldn't she? I haven't abused your ex for a while.
