Large at Lyall Bay


There have been some positive things to come out of the crap summer we are having. The biggest positive is the wind. It has been fricking windy. Nine windsurfing sessions so far this year and the main sail I have used is the 4.0 and 4.5.

As an example today was large and completely unseasonal:
  • Wind was large (gusting well over 40 knots)
  • Waves were large (logo plus)
  • Jumps were large
  • Crashes were large
  • Sail felt really large
It was a great sail after a day of fluffing around waiting for the wind to drop (which it never did). Thanks to Troy and Hoody for keeping an eye on me enjoying the largeness. And thanks especially to Tim Haxell for shooting and editing this footage. I owe you one Tim.

Update: Now featuring on the continent seven website.

Nice James! I think it is safe to say you've got those pushies dialed.

Yes, it's the only move I'm comfortable doing when it the conditions are out of control.
