Andy from Hervey Bay getting his daughter well underway on the Starboard blowup and the graduating to the 120 Futura - fantastic progress :-)

Tim is here with his kids getting them going on the starboard rio and Ezzy sails

I'm a proud dad :-). My son and daughter have made progress.

Xena dragged away from iPhone/Instagram/5sos




Max working on the harness



Especially proud of my beautiful wife Jane. Having the courage to push on after a few tentative goes on peter's big start last holidays.

We picked up a cheapie early years Starboard start from gumtree and now 5 days in Jane is starting to sound obsessed with windsurfing.

From very tentative fearfull knee shaking start to getting upwind and 'beating' back and forth - well done Jane xxx!!!




Cheers Jeff
Loving windsurfing. j

Fantastic post, great spot and great vibe! Awesome!

Jeff great read mate - good to see so many on the water at the Lake over the easter holidays

How nice to see a few noobs on the water - Woo Hoo to Jane, Delmay, Max, Xena - Tamy and other girls and boys

The Improvers are growing

We had a great time

Looking forward to catching up again

Awesome. Looking a bit like the "good ole days".

Nice work Jane. I saw your balance training on the Start without the rig before we left. I will try and get Shona onto the Go next time we are up there. She used to have a run on the Wally a few years back. I think Will might almost be big enough for the Kids Rig by next Summer too.

So cool to see so many boards there again, I have had plenty of holidays there when I couldn't see another board on the water.

Lucky that is a big lake, or we might have to put lanes in!!

Thanks for sharing Jeff great stuff for our sport !

Hi Jeff, it was indeed a week of great accomplishments and an enormous amount of fun... and great to relive some of it reading your post. I'm certainly looking forward to our next trip!
