despite a 3-hour grid search, i lost my FLX 132 at port waikato on friday. according to folklore, it should be washing up at muwirai or points north soon. the finder will be handsomely rewarded if they contact me.

apart from that brutal incident it was another west coast road trip spectacular, with classic raglan, then REM live concert, then waitara, then a mast high wave bonanza at kina road, followed by mellow head high weld road, then more waitara for the hippy and myself and other enthusiasts.

we have quality video footage of the trip and will reveal the highlights in due course - including possibly the first moving images of kina rd being kited in very large classic NW conditions.

i can't wait to hear everyone else's tales from a long weekend of wild west wind and waves.
