I am aching all over .. yup.. and most of it due to my seat harness.

Perrin.. Have you been able to download those photos you took on Sunday?
You should have a few classic shots.

I hope you were able to get the one of me doing the technical frog leap manoeuver..
Edge hard and go for the biggest pop of the day.. Only to realize your board is nicely placed on the top of the wave.. and you look like a complete twat waving arms and legs.

Jamie.. next time.. Board offs should be attempted ON THE WATER.. bwaaaa

Gaves Birth Day was a touch down (Been watching too much Pop Idol).
Well that was until Shaan jumped into the spar poollol
Glad to see you had your boxers on!!

I must say I was surprised to see the crew all going hard on Sunday.
A few hours before and we were debating moves, over warm JD and flat coke.

I would like to have gone to Omaha as that my favourite spot !!
I first headed down to Takapuna as thats my local, however the tide was up and from the chat the night before.. most of the guys were going to Orewa. I had a great session even though it was the most packed I have ever seen it. However... there was plench room out back or down the beach. The waves were great.

25 kt, sunny and deserted was what we had at eastern. i've been to orewa when it's been half pumpin and it was so freakin crowded. Same as shakers. 95% of ak's kiters kite at 5% of the beaches... the rest of the beaches are deserted :wink:

i guess all that traffic does have it plusses after all :wink:

hey madness we need to hook up a sesh one of these days.

it was good hu. didnt the windsurfers look weak,just another water hazard i reckon, still i had some rabid runs up the inside of the bay,soooooooo sweet,ive been off the water untill 2day, a short blast at st helliers confirmed a tweaked groin but i doubt it will keep me off the 2morow, and orewa is the target. 8)
