With the shortage of wind we are having I dragged out the big board on the weekend. 165 lt go that I brought to teach my kids on. Took it out to the lake in 12 knts and had a ball just cruzin around. I had forgotten how much fun it is to just go for a wind surf, plus I have been crashing a lot of gybes this year but after the weekend the big board let's you go back to basics of moving your feet in the turn and getting close to the mast good practice. Anyone learning now has such great boards to ride as the go can really plane like a short board or stand up and float.
I had the opportunity to sail my old 175 Go! then the 122, then a 101 then a 94 a couple weeks ago.
So much fun getting back on the big board.
Just a pity I'm selling it (sorry, buyer already arranged).
Ahh Echunda time to get a Longboard then you can take Mrs Echunda and Little Echunda out on it all at once!!
