Looks like I'll be stripping ceiling beams if there's no wind then
Not looking good for the weekend ahead, any one coming down anyway?
I''l be over Friday evening,

Is that all you're stripping Dunk?
Weekend off then Shem?
mmmmmmmmm jet ski
Weekend looks excellent from where I'm sitting , forcast for good winds over the next week or two. I have had four days of non stop
kiting in just boardies and a rashie. Oh forgot to mention I,m on Calis beach Turkey 30+ degrees and windy
Next week looks good here at the mo though... Apart from the rain, but I'll put up with that if it brings wind with it.

I must admit I share your views Dunk, They dont really bother me, but once youve done half anf hour of blasting around theyre pretty boring. There only fun use is towing into sturdy surf. Ive got a mate thats towed maverics a few times, which is pretty hardcore. For real flat day fun ya need a nice big mastercraft with a huge wake. (shame I havnt got a spare 30 grand)!
tow-in surfing rocks. might be riding some thurso point break action soon..
as for this weekend wind fully gay
Leo che footage of leigh from Aberystwyth riding huge Thurso on one of the TIN CAN production videos. The place gets huge!!!!!!
Having said that Col, if you wanna leave it at mine, during the week, thats fine, Im sure Ill find a use for it somewhere. Or maybe chuck the engine in my scrambler!

new board Al ! whats coming ?
hope you havent gone and bought a full 2008 price board , but the more realistic been on the shelf last 2yrs but still new bargain !
which in my opinion repersents the true value of the board !!!!!!
bought a naish vector freewave this yr brand new but a 05 model £399 .
Back to the weather then - yes mid week looks ok at moment and theres some swell coming with the wind so fingers crossed for some
decent wave action .
ooopps edit i,ve just read the other post about the replacement naish ! you done well there

Not such a rubbish weekend, pretty solid wind over here today, a nice surprise, and quiet on the beach to!
bit more than solid later on...steady 16-20knts from 3pm, oh and I could get lisa off the skim she seems to have really taken to it and
rides it better than her ( or is that mine) twinny.
Mind you cant move my back this morning after falling off it saturday playing silly b******rs in the lagoons
It seemed to be around 16-20 knots for most of the day, just teasing me with not quite enough!
It did pick up to 22-26 knots for about an hour at 5pm, I was just about to go out when some prospective clients phoned and wanted to
come around for a chat there and then, so I had to sit there talking to them whilst watching the wind meter reading 'perfect easy
cruising conditions'... of course once I did get on the water at around 6pm it had dropped off to around 18-20 knots again and there
wasn't enough!

Glad your enjoying the skim board. Im well stoked with them. Rode mine strapped Sunday, and its such a cruzy ride. Goes super easy, and
manages solid jumps as well. Im gonna see if I can make a quick release strap system for it,, rarther than having to carry a screw
driver down the beach, depending on riding style.
Looking pretty epic out the re now as well, but Im saving it for tommorow.
just you wait until you try transition kiteloops or kickflips with the skimmy!!! Good bye shins and big chunks out of your toes!
