SandMonster Posted October 30, 2006 Author Report Posted October 30, 2006 ...now those beat Bobby's in the water pics, from the view of 'point of view', if you know what I mean...:cool:
Bobby Posted October 30, 2006 Report Posted October 30, 2006 Neat pics Pooly dude. Get the mate to take me up and I promise to take your piccie . Hopefully a Halloween dip is on for tomorrow. XC easing off to a respectable mid 20s, but looking at Cobs, think it'll be 30s, so wee V is packed and ready. Might make it late for a couple of hours and then the light'll fade as it turns into a spooktacular session with maybe one or two kiting tricks and beer treats .
Bobby Posted October 31, 2006 Report Posted October 31, 2006 Fantastic late afternoon kiting fix . Big, big Northerlies. Just a few of us out, then a goon opened up and it was just surreal, wee V and a flx132 - nobods around cept an escaped boy and it was just pure bliss. Had a couple of locals all togged up staring at the local nutter, hooping and hollerin' out in those cold waters - did a cool big jump and landed sweet as a nut on the sand - gave 'em a big a grin then jumped back in screamin' - dudes it was just the best . Found I hadn't done the deflate zip up on the wee little'un but didn't matter cos there was so much wind around screaming into those vents. Cheers to Carl for sticking around till I came in - that dude gets more sand between his toes than I do . http://www.bobmcgee.com/kiting/pics/buoy.jpg
JohnDave Posted October 31, 2006 Report Posted October 31, 2006 Those bouys give me the eebie jeebies, the thought of that cold wet seaweedy rope heading down to a large weight at the bottom, sends a shiver down my spine. I forgot I was wobbly with them till I was at BRS on Saturday, went right close to a starboard mark and the wobblies kicked in. I sailed away quick as I could really scared.
garykf Posted October 31, 2006 Report Posted October 31, 2006 sounds like you had a good afternoon mate, hoping some of those westerlies hang around for the weekend. Need an early morning fix on the water pretty soon.
HippyMchop Posted October 31, 2006 Report Posted October 31, 2006 Dave, Feel the same as you mate hate the thought of the rope going into the dark depths, hence normally give em a wide birth. That said when we kayak with the kids in Coniston water I have no issue with seeing which of the kids can sit on top of the buoys (inflatable ones) the longest, its a fun game which involves everyone but me getting wet.

I'll be busy all day Saturday, but may get down Sunday afternoon for a bit. Looking good for all weekend, mid teen westerlies, clear but cold. John
