iS97, 6.3Blade, 35 S07 - Lammermoor Beach, QLD, AU NNE 25-30kn

Very solid seabreeze - Blasted off the water today with the wave guys on their 5.0's having trouble holding it down as well.  In my haste to get on the water I forgot my knee brace and I'm feeling it now with my knee pretty swollen.  Felt like a rodeo with some big offs just trying to pull the beast up but didn't go over the front thank god.  Just way too much and board was tail walking anytime I tried to go for it.  Conceded defeat and had a scary run downwind back home.  Shame I had baby sitting duties this arvo as I would've been tempted to rig the wave gear and have a more enjoyable blast.  Hopefully it is 5 to 10knots less tomorrow.

last sail Lake Cootharaba, QLD, AU

No wind 'til 3 pm then out we go with a big board in case I get caught out. Wind was about 12 knots to start with, but around 17 knots on the Eastern side....similar to yesterday.  Should have changed to the Screamer and a smaller sail but getting a bit late in the afternoon so put up with it.Picked up a 6 pak of Strongbow and having last supper with Jeffro, Marcia and Jasper who have been very good to me....thank you.
