Several times I have kited the mouth of Woolooware bay.... It is a known windsurfing spot. On several occasions I have encounted a extremely aggressive windsurfer claiming that I am breaking the rules kiteboarding there, this guy has tried to run me over several times( smart guy.....) I have since asked a few guys about this rule and I can't get a clear answer.... I am lead to believe that the rule this so called windsurfing nazi is going on about is 4m off the beach there, I am always more then 4m off the beach.... Has anybody heard of this rule? Or has anyone else witnessed this aggressive nazi? I think I will take my gopro out and film it next time.....
The rule is four meters off the beach? Please explain what is what and how it relates to being 4m off the beach?
There is no rule. Just watch out for abandoned oyster farms and bull sharks........ And also angry pole boarders crapping on about 4m rules.
from what I know the only rule at Botany Bay is imposed by the airport. As a rule of thumb people shouldn't kite North of the Brighton Le Sands baths. I have heard of people being fined a few years ago for kiting there.
Been sailing with kiteboards at Dolls Point for years. Never had a problem. Not sure what he is on about when he talks about a "4m rule".
Where we kite being a small community we try to self regulate, the general rule in the summer months is to keep out off the beach so if the kite were to crash it wouldn't his any beach goers. Only time we have issues is with visitors or new comers, but we try to inform. Winter time with no one on the beaches you can ride the shore break!
This is what l call hypocrisy. This guy the sailboarder l am one by the way is allegelly causing a rift over nothing.
I know who it is. his name is..........., oh ****, cant remember, what's his bloody name?? Something like an old Ants pants commercial??
Some hot chicky babe lets insects go to town?? Bugger, this is really pissing me off. Oh well, someone will figure it out!! Watch out, he is a nasty bugger.
The scumbag abuses windsurfers as well, for no reason. An embarassment to the windsurfing community.
Just a matter of time till he gets his teeth knocked out.
Pretty sure it is to do with the sailing club and technically kites are not meant to be in the area in Woolooware bay and no closer than 400m from sailing club ?. I am not sure if this is only when they are sailing at the club or at any time. If you check with Sans Souci water police they will confirm. Most of the windsurfing guys know who you are talking about heh heh. think he is trying to protect a great patch of water. Offer him a beer and you will be mates for life lol
