16-17Knts earlier on......JP110LxcitePE-7.7Hellcat-40GSC fin

Nice easy sailing with a well balanced rig - felt really nice after moving the base 2cm forward (thanks for the Tip Mike).

20-25Knts last hour.....JP110LxcitePE -6.3EzzySE - 34 Stock fin

Wind really kicked in with some big gusts could have sailed even smaller than the 6.3,  I must admit though, I had a really good time.

All my logged times where on the Ezzy except for the Nm and 1hr on the Hellcat.

a nice day at Kyeemagh on Botany bay. Anywhere between 15 knots and 25 knots at times. I made a b-line for the runway to do some speedruns but it was pretty gusty and surprisingly lumpy too. Lots of sailing across the back of 30cm troughs and one time my fin let go big time. Thankfully I just did the sideways shuffle for 50m or so before I was able to slow it down and pull it back in.

I did one run too many knowing the wind was dropping and got stuck up to my waist waiting for the wind to come back in. Finally got back to shore and decided to call it quits rather than waiting for it to pick up again.

Very average sesssion on Lake Illawarra.  Seabreeze simply didn't kick in.  At least I wasn't the only one out there annoyed.  On a Freeformula and a 9.5 Ezzy Infinity so top speeds reasonable for a big board/sail combo.  Highlight was getting my 3 yo son down there, pushing him around on a board and seeing the eyes light up - future father and son windsurfing here we come!!

It was our christmas party last night so I slept until 3pm. Late start but still got some good wind. Same as Andrew, I headed straight for the runway, but found it really bumpy and not worth the effort. It was great fun just doing out and back runs throught the bumps.

Late get out due to birthday and Xmas prep. Pretty gusty as usual but nice to be using a sail smaller than the 7.8. When the lone fisherman got off the bank the wind decided to go north so really hard to string together a decent run to get wound up. Had a few spin outs due to weed I think. No crashes for once, that was left to Marni ;-)

I got one nice flat stick planing gybe in and thought Id got a new Alpha but the wind died a bit short of the nreturn, oh well.

Wind didnt have any "oomph" to it, bummer. Nice cold beer after wards helped.
