good wavesail



yesterday had the first good wavesailing ive had in months!
wind was bordering on nuclear for a while totally maxed on my 4.2 but dropped off slightly as the swell built and the tide dropped making for some fun punchy waves.
wouldve been nicer if the swell had come through bigger as forecast but if you waited out for the sets it was fun.
phoenix got some photos early in the session when the wind was strong and the waves were smaller before she had enough of the sand blasting. thanks for coming down and getting a few phi!

jumping session

first time back on the water after a few weeks. had a jumping session in 25 knots cross on conditions down at waratah bay.




looks like some proper down the line conditions in a few days. probably fairly small waves but anything would be nice!

fishing + van + sandy point



Possibly the worst summer ever for Victoria with no swell and no wind so I decided to head up to Cairns, QLD to go fishing for a few days.



Weather was awesome and we had a good time out on the Great Barrier Reef, it was perfect fishing conditions - the whole ocean was pretty much dead flat!


Back in Melbourne I finally got my van set up finished so I can go roadtripping in luxury with all my gear. Massive thanks to Lock for the help.


Now I am spending two weeks down at Sandy point, the world renowed speed sailing destination that can deliver some pretty fun wavesailing as well. So far no real swell or wind but hopefully will get some jumping tomorrow.
