Bobby Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Blow the cobwebs off the kit ladies, those bleeding easterlies have buggered off and it's looking like a decent weekends worth of wind coming our way. Getting niggly with kiters depression and desperate for a session so fingers and toes crossed the forecast holds. Any takers beware of them real big high tides early afternoon so park 'em motors hard up against them dunes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 @ Matt - Hope alls well with you and yours Matt - beach is exactly as you left it dude, cept where all the grumbling was its all now just love and peace We sometimes stick the motor in Duke St. or a road off it; 53.643628,-3.012112 - Google Maps What a day fellas! - Loads of stoke, sunshine and natter, fantastic 11m stuff. Massive tides meant moving the motor twice though, but I at least got on the beach - unlike some poor kiter dudes. On the beach for 09:30 out the pond at 5:30, no aches, no pains. Glaxo should bottle that sea water stuff - but the Stella brewery should take some credit too Looking pretty decent for the rest of the week, bag that warm water while you can. Top day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnDave Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Alright Matt, hope all's good with you. Good day down there today, pity I couldn't get on the beach but I'm sure the walk from the rangers station did me good. Hopefully I'll make it down during the week too.

Bobby Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 Friday looks way too good to miss. High teens bang onshore, loads of sunshine and infilling goons all afternoon. And I've just pulled a dodge at work giving me Friday off. Fanfriggintastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My knees and hamstrings are on the mend to a point that I'm running and pushing for some kind of fitness again now. I don't think I'll kite again because of the knee stress, but I may come and do a Banks to Crosby run sometime soon. Ta for the advice on parking. Have fun fellas.

Bobby Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Great pics Gary - always amazes the daughters how their old Pop can look so cool ________________________________________________ Ace day Low 13m winds in the morning, high 11m winds in the afternoon. Flew the 13 all the way through A wee bit overpowered but way too lazy to come in and change down Jets and choppers all over us pulling in some practise in for the weekend fly-in. .....and tons of cockles and lots of dead fish!? - Tsunami warning? Came in after I pulled a 360, whilst trying to kiteloop the 13 (always a bad idea for that big dude) then pulled the bar the wrong way to exit - major Noobie mistake - kite crashed and I crashed...hard. Time for bed said Zeb. Cheers to Andy for the sunscreen and the dude for the banana and the choc. And real nice to see Big-Jon and some proper buggying down there - been too long dude. Not a lot for the weekend but Sat afternoon is now going green Was gonna pick up a new Blu_Ray player but hey Costco's open Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big-jon Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Cheers Bobby - was a great day!! It's been far too long and was great to get moving again and start blasting up and down the beach - 43mph according to 'mytracks' on my HTC!! Shame I missed too many other good days, but I hope to see a few more before the end of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Nice vid Ian Saw you on that yellow fun machine when I was out on the water Friday. Used to have one of them in red, it was a great kite. Bought it off some dude who'd ripped it on a reef down under, had it repaired and it was one of the best arcs I ever had - in the end sold it to a guy in S.port and I replaced it with a 10m Venom 1 - another classic kite. Always thought small arcs are just the best fun. (except the Peter Lynn 630 I used to have...now that was just plain scary) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
