Planning on extended foil trips south.
Are there winging crews in Albany and Esperance, also any info on wave/downwinding conditions and how often the spots are weedy?
Cheers for any feedback

When?? I didn't think you left the comfort of Cottesloe or Point Walter? I'd go further North less weed and smaller Sharks.

I love the south coast. Wavesailed Bremer Bay for 5 years but always on my own.
Has to be wingers in Albany and Esperance ??

I don't know of any foilers in Albany, I'm usually there for speedsailing. Last trip there wasnt a lot of wind so I launched my windfoil into the harbour from the entertainment centre. It was an enjoyable sail. I guess your preference is ocean swell, but there was a bit of wind swell building up in the 10-15kt winds. I imagine it could be quite good in 20kt+
