i would like to extend my apologies to everyone in QLD.

at approx 12.30 EST my new 5.8m Kult (08) was delivered to the front door at home.

at approx 1pm the forecast turned for the worst. [}:)]


i knew the sail had arrived just be looking at seabreeze.

lucky you didn't order an ezzy or a pair of underpants we'd have <5

Last i heard you were baby sitting all weekend so as long as huey knows that all is fine

boms still calling 20-25

Question to those in the know about this phenomenon

I'm gunna be receiving a 5.2 and 5.7 soon, what will the wind forecast be then (or change from previous forecast) for what duration?

Let's test ya!

Well i can do better than that I have 3 new sails 5.2,5.6,6.8

>1 & <40 is my prediction

Vando - Yeah you win, I saw your pics of blades, i'm getting 08 lips

Haircut - Cheers for the info, sort of...

haha. yes, on parent duty this weekend. will be at the beach though for some of that time so i will get salt.

monday is a day off for me. looks like wind. will be at VP for those that are keen.

i was teasing a little. i reckon tomorrow is looking very good for a nice seabreeze. though i'm not a weather man.

haha haircut, i never buy new undies. but you knew that.


hey dism,

2 - 4 weeks typically. 5.2 & 5.7 i reckon you are in for wither 10-15knots or 40 knots.

If it's 40kn then you fellas might get some good left overs , as your up a bit further north

At least i've got something between 6.5 (monofilm) and 4.7 now! Finally be able to hit up open waters, no good open stuff thats not beach here unlike train, wello for you guys

btw, did anyone happen to download and test if this plays ok? particularly if you got a single core puta - but its pretty big file at about 75mb

vando got a new lip also.

Nahaa vando bought a wave sail.

Looks like all the new sails beat Gesty's babysitting.

What a fizzer.

Ah rain at last. Its cooling down even as I speak.

Sorry bout that, but mine aren't new ('08 2nd hand), so does that mean that all the non-windiness is already used up by the previous owner? Or do I still have to pay my dues to Huey?

Haircut - the vid works well on my single core Dell on Vista and VLC Media Player, keep 'em coming it really helps to see that sort of windsurfing and non-pros (I don't mean this in a bad way, you have skills man) so you can semi-understand how to copy stuff (apart from your crazy flakkas/vulcans etc)

The video is awesome hc! Watching it on a widescreen feels like being there. Gooood Stuff!!

Watching MistralNick go flying past me, exactly like being there.

... was that HD? What was strapped to your head?
What lense size?

Got a little chunky and was skipping frames after half way, where there was lots of stuff moving on screen (you know), but awesome to see in HD!!!

Liked the "oi, oi!!!" bit

i've got exactly the same prob as panda.

about half way goes jumpy etc. pity cause it is an awesome job once more. hdtv headcam.

maybe it is a graphics card problem. i have a nvidia 6 series.?

thanks for testing it i don't exactly know why it gets jumpy at the same point on some pc's. the blockyness is because i've re-compressed it at a substantially lower bitrate than the original 24mbps so file size is small. i'm guessing some folk have got a different version of the h264 codec installed

Yeah it did get a bit blocky in the middle, so quality lower but good vid

What DID you have strapped to your head? There was sound.
What is this waterproof, HD camera that you can strap to your head?

Did you see the cam on the kiter vid that is featuring on general section right now? Best point of view I reckon.
