Nah, we take turns at applying Burlie to our boards, or you sail with someone who doesn't gybe well

Does help that we haven't had much wind for the last 3 months.

Sooner or later one will take a 5 year old then something may be done but until then it's seriously fast water starts sharts

No need here, lots of leaner kiters to keep them distracted from windsurfers.

haha, i actually never drop a gybe windsurfing in warnbro sound, the guys i sail with is sometimes 50/50, im more likely to break something, which has happened, its the worst feeling, 2 1/2 hours is my longest swim back, it took me 1 3/4 hours to rescue tom on a easterly, 15-25 knots gusty 7.8m sail slightly off the wind

i slept so good that night, didnt see any sharks that day.

not that day
