Good backup Andrew, fingers crossed Sue has a good day for us at Lake George today!

Nice work Andrew we had the same here!! Cmon Huey and GO Sue!!!!

Well done Sue, PBs on the first day! Whats with the three decimal point accuracy? Have you upgraded your GPS?

Daffy redeeemed himself by doing the upload on his laptop with his program..Also I did bring a spare GPS and Daffy style wore 2 today! 

Great stuff Sue.  The mud-bum-drag-water start is a fine skill for Lake George and nothing to be ashamed of!

Thanks everyone..Eckas  I love the bum waterstart!Much easier than the hippo one! 

Great work Sue. Entertaining read!!. Congrats on the PB's.

Sue, do look after yourself! Stop if you get short of breath or your limbs feel heavy and listless like that other time. PB's are great but they're not worth risking your life for.

Well done on the PBs today. Sounds like they were hard work. More to come I expect...

Great pbs Sue. And top recount of the day, had a good laugh and could feel your pain. Keep the stories, and PB's, coming.

Yeah I feel for you Sue. Starting from the other side, Cockies Point may have been less hassle but it is a long arse walk out and back still.

BTW top of the class for the effort and PB's to boot

I am waiting for the good news Sue!.....the green grass for rigging, the nice spot for an easy beachstart and the trendy cafes ! So far l am staying at home.

Really, is there no place at this lake to launch  not in the mud?

 yes tibor not very pleasant so far..once i learn to close orifices will be easier (bit hard for someone who can talk under water..) Guys you must be desperate if you think my scores will help you!  looking forwad to a 10_15kt day (if they get them .prob more like out 12_18kt) for a cruisier intro. Few days no wind then maybe Sun will get my cruise..Face is burnt today - I think the wind on a salt caked face isn't good..

Anita forgot my bloodpressure pills so been off them for 4 days-dr today for script. Heart palps settled once out of mud bath but I did look after myself and just stopped until they settled. One thing that worries me is if something happens and you get stuck out there and have to get back as so exhausting trying to walk in the mud..think it would kill me 

Onya Sue, just try not to overdo it...take your time. Great PB's.

Congrats Sue - well done on PB's for the first day!! It will get easier.

I  hope so Chris!  Stirred up rsi neck issue so headache today. Glad its a lay day.Doesnt sound like much wind due-still I dont mind I can try and up my crappy hr +nm in that.. Be nice to better my 2sec but not really worried..just want to have fun!(If I can work out how to not fall in that will help!

Tibor nah all mud. Wish I'd come a few years ago it was sandy bottom, crystal clear and glass 

Some pics .Sorry no access to usual editing program so not as good as usual.

Daffy starting his reach across the middle to cockies.

Went to Cockies as part of guided tour with daffy . This is about 11am and there were some guys out in c 10-15kts. They were off the plane at times. Word was they were out for distance so started early. This is where I looked at the flatwater and I thought I'd kill it..Hah!   Don't know who they are..

I have nore but will have to post later as things are playing up and they won't upload. Light rain here..Tibor..Off to coffe shop

 Brain dead at  the moment Mick.I've been milking him for tips but already forgotten half   Does look like I need to push on my fin and trust it.I don't due to riding waveboards with freestyle fins that let go with the slightest presure. He did say I did a good gybe.
