Ther are some pretty wild storms coming through now and then, but wind chill factor is way too high for me in my old age. The snowfields are far more appealing. Looks like epic speed conditions for Sandy Point this Saturday, but I am going in search of Powder snow.

Interesting to see those Mallard Ducks on your island. Introduced from the Northern hemisphere. They are quite tasty. Do you have an open season?

Nah, you can eat them anytime bags not gutting them , yuk, you know they swim in the salt water lagoon , they follow the glass bottom boats and eat the bread ,sea ducks

excuse my gybes ...haven't use a small wave sail in a while .

Tardy youre excused. Wait til you see my version of a gybe.

Great to see another Ezzy in action .flying mate

Nice video! The Rs have a lovely floaty feel. It looks like you're enjoying the board.
You get plenty of gybe practise sailing there.

Sure do Sue, yes they do feel floaty for their size , it's the tail width I would say I find it easy to sail and gybes and tacks well for its size , I just forgot wave sails dump their power quick , but by the end of the session, I got they hang of it , great board and scoots along

looks awesome where is this?

Kingston ,reef .
767 km south of Noumea .

Yes - just in front of the old prison

yep ,i was locked up in there once

Nice video Tardy. The water is so clean and healthy. Unlike "stinky n brown" we get here in Adelaide (at least the Northern beaches). We call it "The brown tide"

How come your video is blurry ?. Is that moisture in your camera enclosure ?

thanks ...yeah ..it was raining a bit ..and i didn't spit on the screen enough ..i'm guess seaspray ,it was 30 knots .
i had to lay the sail down in the big rain fronts ,just couldn't hold it down ..must of been close to 40 .

Ducks nuts Tardy

Looks great. Wish I was you.
