Not sure if wind broken...

[skywalker]

or if nature is telling me to take up golf

But in all seriousness, going from 20 knots westerly to 3 knots easterly is a very dangerous, and time consuming fluctuation

I was nicely powered up for most of that session and when I came in it was actually to change boards but I never made it off the beach!
then I saw ya stuck and the yellow zodiac come by but you must have told them you didn't need a ride.
I eventually drove out to Clover and asked a couple if they'd seen ya but sounds like you were picked up!

I had to swim before so its northerly change 1 - Adrian making it back 1!!

We get that once in a while @ Gordons. Watch the flags & trees before you come in !!!

I thought you were on that floaty 3 finned race thinger?

[skywalker]

I was on a floaty board. But it was still a bit of a handful.

Makes for a difficult climb over the barnacles with a 20lb board complete with 1.5 foot daggers fins.

Yes I was all excited watching the reports and seeing it get windy at work, only to drive home and find it dead at the lagoon! Good paddling weather!

Hey skywalker ever kited a SUP? Mine has a giant daggerboard which makes upwind a breeze.

Google SUKing

[windaddiction]

[JL]

Why not

YUP but I won't say that I SUKed

A purebred race board is far more efficient in light air. The fins make a huge difference.

But you need to be prepared to eat S$$t for about a week until you figure out how to ride it.
