Yo Yo!!
Hope all is well guys, I've been absolutely loving these South Easterlies because there is really only one location to hit, Parky or Ricketts, which is great because everyone from around the bay sails in one location, the great thing about this is that it means we can push ourselves a little harder!

You can send that Forward, Boost the Backie, or even get reckless trying a downwind 360 down the face of a roller!

So what i propose to the group of PPB windsurfers is that we all get a little bit Gen Y, and go and get a twitter account (its very easy) twitter.com/ . From there we can very easily 'tweet' where we are headed so we have someone on the water with us!

What do you say?? Lets give it a crack!!

Steve

Or you can use the gong off page on the WV web site. Where you can let every one know where you are sailing. If the location is one of your favourites it will email you. Check it out there is more great stuff

Steve lets pick a hashtag, and off we go!

I propose #wvic. Can you think of a better tag?

Stephen, the website's nice, but Twitter's much nicer on a phone. It takes seconds to tweet from the beach. You can also tweet photos, and be as cool as the kiters ;) .... you get the picture :-)

Thats pretty good #wvic.

Right so my name is @stevefigjam

whats yours...

Other tips

Try to turn on geo location when you tweet...
Say whether it's good, bad, improving etc and whether you're launching or coming ashore.

An app that you could press buttons with your sails, board, launching/coming ashore status... Would be cool... If someone knows how to write twitter apps

Steve I'm @tusharpokle, but check in on #wvic so that others can find you.

twitter.com/hashtag/wvic

Cool idea... now I have a real reason to use it :)

Dont forget to enable "geolocate your bathroom habits" to FB and G+

FYI Colin is upgrading the site to be smart phone friendly soon.
Having Twitter as well would be good for a quick post.

The GoingOff website site allows you to slect your board, sail and fin that you are using. This helps others see what you are sailing with.
