When it's not windy and your sitting at your desk dreaming of that day you nailed it...

Perfect conditions.

Perfect wave?

Coincidence?...switched over to Gold FM this morn & heard the song as I spotted your thread, haven't heard it for years.

Thought a bit later that I might put it up, hope you don't mind the hijack.

Just for something different, I thought I'd steer thing back onto topic.

I'm going to get all nostalgic but one of my most memorable sessions occurred way back in jan 1986. Windsurfer One Design...12-15 knot seabreeze, beautiful sunny day and I took off on a broad reach and planed for the first time....26 years later I still feel the rush!

Similar to Drift

Sunny summer's arvo, Middle Park circa 1982.

My second board [ Wayler Ypsi] had footstraps and fully retractable db. The sheer elation of feeling that extra surge and control that only straps and a harness can deliver. Still smiling.

Then again, my first session in the waves at Byron Bay, summer 1984 still sticks. Sailing my girlfriend's father's Mistral Maui, oh man that thing was sooo tech!
