    My return to RB after hot sunny tropical climes. Rigged up the 4.5m as it looked windy, but suspiciously like tidal chop white caps and maybe not so much wind induced. Turned out to be a good call, think I would have been seriously undergunned on a 4m or smaller and my smaller foil. Initial reactions were "it's cold" quickly followed by back to back kelp smack downs heading upwind into the glare and tidal crap lines. Once I figured out where the tide line crap was and the new growth kelp forests I was able to keep to a relatively small area of clear flying. Turned out some of the "best" areas were closer in front of launch. Quite a few wingers, all the usual suspects. Someone kindly mention to Tweezer that he's on the wrong side of the wing a lot of the time. Cheers for the beers Danno! and group debrief. GPS didn't start
