Hey offshore what wetsuit are you wearing at the moment?
Considering a last minute Thanksgiving trip to the OBX.

You and the fam coming down south boo?

Bought a couple of touring kayaks. So that’ll keep us on the water.

There’s actually a sailing club out there. But not my thing. Kite surfing looks too complicated. Too many ropes.

Kite boards, catamaran, kayaks. Hope you’ll have a nice big shed for all these craft BA, and the SUPs

I agree, but if I was bored and there wasn't anything else to do I'd give it a go again.

I tried it for a while after giving up windsurfing because kites out-performed them so decisively, but never got good enough at it for it to be enjoyable.

God spare us

Nah, it got too hard.

If Boo and Offy don’t catch up it will be a tragedy.

We will, in the spring.

Oh, so you stayed home and had sexy time you salacious rascal.

Yeah, spring sounds good, hopefully we'll be over the rona by then.

Flat at Bondi again. A few off shore peelers at The Bra however...Hi Skip.
Crazy strong wind though and the rip was washing everyone out to sea.
Looked like one learner on a foamy had to get rescued. They were way out.
Pretty crap conditions really.

Pleasure Point Santa Cruz a couple of days ago on Thanksgiving morning

1.5 times overhead and 2 times on the bombs. Felt good to be out in some bigger stuff for a change. Hard fcuken work but I got a couple. Definitely doesn't have the power of Victorian waves west of the cape at that size though. Which is good because otherwise I'd have stayed in the car.

Drove round to Steamer Lane afterwards and was treated to a pretty cool show of double overhead bombs, plenty of barrels etc... Great place to stand on the rail with a coffee and watch.

We need pics Grooter. Sounds awesome.

Yeah, really liked Santa Cruz.

Apparently called Pleasure Point from back in Prohibition Days.
Cowells is the real beginners wave in the area.
