My 9'4 Creek..... handled with ease. Vid is coming.

Another day in paradise

A couple of days ago at Red Bus in quite boisterous surf.......a fit dude riding one of those yellow warehouse body glove sups......his sister scored it at a clearance sale for $200. He was pretty good......and as only 3 people out his lack of a leg rope wasn't an issue :)

Down under Dave .

Lol, iPhones what can I say?

Missed the early Peninsula-pod paddle - sorry George - kids committments.
But a stonking 30+knot northerly later on. Melbourne downwinding at it's best - 26c, sunny, windy and perfectly lined up on the DJ run.
With "Retirement Boy" Mark Thommo and Dave White.
The new SUP racks at BRYC working a treat - thanks Damo & Nozza.

Almost 2 weeks out of the water with Melbourne weather, travel, other stuff.
Some nice paddles out of Beaui last few days.
Surf at Port Fairy.


Back home, Beaui.


First try of the new PSH 10'6" All rounder.


Back on Iron Phil


No dolphins Dave, but a cute little seal.






Pretty Blue Gun out for a first post renovation paddle.




Another post to follow on that.


Here's as good as anywhere!

I like seals too!

Not today, just some days ago, a cool little session. A long SUP would have been better, but you only see the waves after half a mile walking at this spot... board choice is a wild guess.

At 1:50 I tried to pump as on a foil: pushing on the legs with a gentler, longer movement, here by moving the board sideways to simulate the downwards glide of a foil. Interesting.

Nice carves Colas. The run of waves we've had has been unreal.

Thanks, yes, and the water at 20C is quite balmy. It seems to me that 20 years ago, 20C was the max we could hope in the summer waters...

Even the male Orcas have a flapping dorsal fin, sign that the water is too hot for them: Just outside the Quick Pro last week: www.sudouest.fr/2017/10/16/landes-il-raconte-sa-rencontre-avec-des-orques-au-large-d-hossegor-3866828-3452.php

A photographer was dragging his pal underwater with a bait to lure tuna to take pictures of them, 8 miles offshroe from the Quick pro when he saw 4 orcas, one bigger than the boat closing in...



Yesterday in Hossegor:

Me... I was SUPing nice small fast walls just half a mile away... you have to know your limits :-)

Finally got out after another burst of Melbourne weather.
Very nice.

Ye trusty old Bic Wing 12'6 around the shipping buoys today......acres of kahawai.... ..dolphins in the mix (the dog a bit ashamed about the summer haircut. No wind.....no surf
