No good. Went out Sun. After half hour in rinse cycle, I managed to get out, got a wave, made some turns, no power from sail in bottom turn, wiped out, spin, final rinse, washed up. Tried to surf, am natural foot, tried to go right, too much wind coming up the face to go that way. Tried some lefts, but they went fat. Came in wind went pure east and blowing sand along beach, should've, could've, would've waited. Mmmm, hope the NW turns on this weekend.
Summary, you need to be slightly nuts to try sail the NE'ly- but it's good practice/exercise.
There was a south swell and Bashams bombie was breaking which might've been nice when the wind peaked, mybe keep this in mind but a south swell and strong E pretty rare.
Pilly, you getting some action at Pebbles?
Working dawn to dusk of late slim so only weekends. Hope it is good Mother's Day.
Bring on the westerlies, had one sail in a month

Cheers slim jim, good to know. I'm a goofy foot so was keen on the idea.
