Labels

A number of times people have come up to me and said stuff like "Hey! Freestyler" or something similar.

I hate labels.

Can't they see I'm a "Windsurfer"!

O'ahu Recap

Expectations couldn't have been lower. With my trusty 84 twin, 5.6 and 4.7 at hand I was hoping to possibly maybe squeeze in a few sessions amongst the family fun. Instead I got this:

• 5 days wave sailing out of 7 in head high+ waves. 4 of those on 4.7, 1 on 5.6
• Countless aerials and late smacks
• My best day ever.

I found Diamond Head to be quite a heavy spot. It destroyed my 5.6 and also my mast on the last day. But get the timing right and the lip would really project you - effortless yet powerful.

Here are some island pics.

Kailua Bay. Didn't see Robby though

Local surfers? Waikiki

An island shaped liked a nipple.  

RIP

"One of the bigger days at Diamond Head...Biggest." Cue music. Pretended to be Robby, just for Noel. :) Actually it wasn't that big.

It was going OK until I got a bit of a working and destroyed my favourite 5.6 all over again. This time it is official. RIP 5.6 Riot.
