Wind! Wind! Wind! Wind! Wind! Wind!

Yes, it's back. Wednesday and Thursday look like the best days.

I'm going to try make it out for the Exmouth low tide (around mid to late afternoon).

See you there,

Giles.

Now where was I

Oh yes, I remember - Windsurfing!
What a quiet couple months it's been. What with the poor weather (well, for windsurfers anyway) and the ridiculously early arrival of our new baby!

Bit of a southwesterly last Sunday so I hope you managed to get out there. Slim pickings at the moment.

I've managed a few sessions at Bigbury - really enjoying the Starboard Quad 86. I didn't use it a lot during the winter, but I was sure it would be a great summer board for me. Very nice with my new Naish Boxer 5.4. Really different sail - lots of fun, so light - feels more like a 4.5!

Talking of Naish, looks like they will have a thruster (tri-fin) for 2011. Starboard will as well (a new Evo) to go alongside the quad. RRD will have a quads as well.

I suppose it will be upgrade time soon so, make me an offer!

Obviously there's the quad. And I might be persuaded to part with my beloved 2009 JP Twin 84. Sail wise there's 2008 Rocks in 5.0 and 4.5 and also a 2004 Rock 4.0.

Cheers,
Giles
