I've been building a speed board and looking at the BOM site, and... ....it looks like we won't have to worry about the lack of wind for too much longer. Here is something to cheer everyone up - this weekend's forecast :
...looks like mostly NW-ly, so should be good for most spots, but check again on the day.
Means I won't be able to use my speedboard yet as it's a directional (port tack) board (for southerly winds).
windguru is looking sweet and i cant wait to hit it hard. I will have my spare board for you guys to try out .
Sweet!!! Thanks Tim, looking forward to having a decent go. What day are you likely to go there? - Both Saturday and Sunday look good, but low tide is early (bef noon) and the strongest wind is likely to be after that. I am betting that Sunday may be a safer bet as the whole front would be well established by then, whereas Sat noon may be too early - but I have been wrong before. I guess we'll have more accurate info closer to the weekend...pm me when you decide

Yea I got one sneaky session before work on Friday morning... was almost tempted to try the narrow channel that the excavator was digging at Fort Glanville for sand carting.
Been mountain biking at Eagle Park in between - saw another SAKSA sticker on the 4WD parked next to mine on Sunday.
