Saturday sounds good, NW at Tony aka askhuey could be a bit of fun with a full crew, it would be great to sail with some new faces, if it blows i'll be there.

just a quick note - i think the swimming flags will be out because of the school holz. the lifeguards have been pretty nice to us in the past and it would be great if everyone could keep clear of the flags as much as possible, though sometimes this is easier said than done, but try all the same

seas are about a metre and a half at the start during the high tide (11.30-ish) which should be pretty easy for most folk even on non wave gear. it's supposed to get bigger by the later arvo but by then the tide will be lower which exposes the superbank and you can stay within the outer bar to avoid the bigger stuff out the back

looking forward to it

Hey lads have a good day, just take heed of what Haircut said about the flags, 20 plus windsurfers close to the flag patrols on a weekend wont make the clubbies too happy, so keep your distance please to keep the status quo, we dont want to be on report like some other wind powered sport!

Awesome fun, good ramps, Chairman once again came to the rerscue, thanks for the boom mate, will be at the store tmrw morning for your collection.

Hey Wet Willy where were you? I waited out front of your house for some time to pick you up?

A few of us headed up to Nobbys for an arvo session, big 2m plus swell pushing thru out the back, was a different cup of tea to the smooth runs at Kirra, great to mix it up for the day.

Im sailing at mermaid Beach tommorrow, in front of Montana St, to the south side of the flags.

What an awesome, classic Kirra day. 20 knots of pure pleasure

MD74: I gave Wet Willy a lift, so it was all sorted.

Can't say how fantastic it was to see so many sails out there, well and truly outnumbering the kites for once. Bad luck with the mast NotWal

Good onya Gestalt for organising the day

thanks everyone for coming. it was great to watch some of the guns in action too. i lost count of the forwards and juniors tweaked table top thing was awesome.

It's great to have surfFX involved as well. i'd like to make this a yearly event on the calendar.

had around 25 people on the water.

will post the review and photos as there done.

cheers all.

next meet is slated for Sutton Beach Redcliffe.

p.s. sorry owain to hear that mate. if it's any consolation my body feels like your car.

yeah, it was a huge effort by junior. he's great to watch. he does more manouvres in 100 metres than anyone i've seen. he just go's for it no matter what.

he did the table top in the shorey just off the beach. i wish it was in focus though.

i got some more of him that are good. still working through them.
plus some of olie doing forwards.
