to get the wind to come back?

Was thinking of picking up a wave board this week but I'm usure if that will make our situation worse or not?

I purchased a 86lt freestyle wave and used it in about a week. Next i purchased a 5.8m sail and used it the next day

But yes i used to have the same fears that you had

my advice is to convince someone that sails with you to purchase a 8m sail.. haha

Boat.......buy a boat......
I bought a boat 4weeks ago but couldn't use it for the first 2weeks cause of the wind that caused

but now even that's worn off

I dunno what to buy for wind, but i know what not to. Just arrived.

Phone cam doesn't do the colour justice. I think I'm gonna have to go for a despo light wind freestyle session even if there is no wind.

Get a wave board!! Life is too short to miss out on the odd strong wind day. I love my old F2 project 78L.

i bought an 85lt rrd wave board plus a 4.7m kaos and a 400mm skinny and an extension to suit it.

that was 3-4 months ago and it hasn't been windy since.

still i know i will use it eventually and it will be worth it.
