There has been a lot of WV membership renewals coming in over the last few days, cant say what SHQ's membership count is. Maybe the boys can give us an update on numbers?

Almost all the people that I speak to a going so we could see 50+.

Its shaping up to be quoite an epic weekend, and looking at the wind, any fence sitters will surely be swayed!


There's also a few guys down on holiday from NSW north coast who arrived last weekend and sticking around for the long weekend.

Im not looking at the forecast anymore its driving me crazy.

nut kicking was conditional on wind having been good enough... see my original post

It's doubly bad if there's no wind. No wind and no kicking.

as long as it is sunny that can still be 20-25 knots, especially over at the inlet. either way definitely not looking as good as it was...

Could be worse the forecast could be for rain and no wind! I am sure I will still find something to keep me entertained if we have no wind.

Wetting a line and waiting for a bite.... that's a paddlin....

Getting on an SUP.... that's definitely a paddlin.....

Well it might be good on Sat @ the gap with it being NE, and I have found that the Bouy Weather forecast is nearly always spot on!



I should add that Ginger's nuts will be on the line!

South Coast Boardriders have their 'Retro Rego' day on Sunday at Sandy Point. Will be set up opposite the general store. Starts at 10am and doesnt look like there'll be any wind then (unfortunately) so get your old school single fins & twins waxed up and have a paddle with the locals. Should be great fun. Hopefully an Easterly kicks in in the arvo.

Saw them. Some very cool old mals in their quiver. Shame the wind flattened it all out :/
