I love packing the car,trying to figure out what the wind is going to do.. Looking at the trees on the way to the water. Getting to your favourite spot and the wind is up . Rigging up and getting stuck in.

I love the first North Easterlies of a season when you rig a 7.5 and planing smoothly.

I love it when it's 50 kn plus. Or just one of those sunny consistant 20-25 days cruising on the 5.3

I love it when I go home after a good session and tell the Mrs that that was the best sail ever, then she says "but you said that last week!!"

Perfect sunny arvo, clear water and looking back to shore at the traffic crawling as the majority head home to watch deal or no deal.15 knts plus is just a bonus.. Oh Yeah, and hitting lord Howe for an orgy of aquatic escapades. Roll on Sunday Woohooo!!!

I love windsurfing because of all the beautiful bikini clad girls who treat us like rock stars when we return to the beach after a couple of
hours out on the 5m....

Try getting halfway home and you realise your wife's SUP is not on the roof. After I packed my windsurfer and don't know if it was on when I left. Never to be seen again. Still love windsurfing.

I love the experience of it all
Expectation: when I see green arrows

Addiction: when I plan my social life around it

Frustation: when the wind doesn't show up or something breaks

Joy,elation,satisfaction: when it all comes together

do you guys get butterflies when you're driving to the beach for a session?

I've had them ever since I started windsurfing. love the expectation!

Getting the timing right on a sweet wave face and hitting it at high speed for a magic floating jump. All on port tack of course.

Telling the wife I'm heading out to do a quote, having a quick combat session and then heading home with the heaters on full blast to dry my hair, risky buy worth it!
