This has to be one of the worst seasons for sea breezes
Not only that but the weather has been pretty ordinary also! We have only had a handfull of +30 degree days and summer only has 6 weeks to go!
Getting very grumpy ![]()

La nina... or what's her face.... ![]()
Congrats to all that made babies! Having a 13 month old I can happily confirm you don't need to put your kit in storage! I still get leave passes they just sometimes don't last as long. As for the wind - it has been a shocking summer! Fingers crossed for a windy Australia day!
Just got to think outside the square guys...
The season's been so bad that I traded a w-s board to buy a SUP! Had some fun times with the kids on it so far...
...also my freezer's full of fish due to the windless days!
Would trade it for some decent wind though!![]()
Plenty of time on the SUP. I know it's not the same but it sure does build fitness & strength. Have seen noticeable changes in my windsurfing when I do manage to get out.
In the 4 years I have been windsurfing this is easily the worst season.
must be the influx of Poms...
Sailed for 2 hrs last night... albeit had to pump a few times...
...using a 10m.
Me finding the 380 cm longboard with 8 meter sail is fun, if not excitement.
Keep going upwind when the kites are going downwind.
Aim to find strong enough current so that wind can be dispensed with entirely ![]()
