drove by queens 1/2 hour ago, its looking good. when tide drops this arvo should be plenty of big swell out back with nice steep ramps.
only 1 kiter out, hopefully i might get an hour before it gets dark.

Hey Scott, I have an old 3.8m sail in the garage (circa 1997) if you are really keen.

Just about holding onto a 4.5 today at Sandgate, great to catch a sail there at High tide, plenty of nice steep ramp for jumping. Nice spot to get sail fit again.

thanks for the commiserations mate, was going to bring boys down on scooters with an old camcorder, but the mrs didn't make it home early enough for that either.
good to here you had top session.

Thanks for the offers guys. Holding the 4.5 was like holding a 8.8 on race days when I first got in but then it settled down to being the perfect fit. 4.5 with the 83 rebel. Just magic with lots of floaty jumps to be had.
