hope its krankin for you guys.
Its really tempting to hit on Saturday - just scared I'll do more damage - I'll certainly be down for a look.

Two more weeks and I reckon I might feel comfortable enough to sail - I can't believe it nearly three weeks since I broke the rib and it still friggin hurts if you move the wrong way or sneeze or accidentally roll on the side at night.

I am without snapping device!!!

If you got the cam I might be able to catch a few snaps at snaps - Day street may well be a blast on Sunday - calling nww - pretty strong - - Might just wear a PFD to p[rotect the ribs and go sailing

Thanks for the Piccies Russ, I had a blast today, ended up sailing for 4 hours, powered up on my 4.7. Had the biggest ever catapult when a wave caught me going cross shore, might look at a helmet, as stars and birds were flying around my head for a few minutes.....

Was a day filled with jumps, my first ever planning gybe (as in fast and flat) and some nice company.

My body is aching all over.....

I feel your pain dave... and only sailed for about an hour!
I use the term 'sailed' very loosely, but it was fun all the same.

It was about that up here too. I did half a run over powered (5.2m sail), got taking out by a wave that looked as high as me (i jumped it, then stacked). Spent 15 minutes trying to water start over powered. When I got back, that was it for me.

Day st had a web cam a few years back or more so at the point looking to d st,was good for an accurate report of the surf when it was clean,the lens that is,
i think it was pulled cause maintenance was too expensive or maybe someone flogged it?Sure would beat a picture of a 2inch wave at chiton on swellnet everyday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
