JOHN REPORTING! SORRY NO NEWS JUST BEEN ALOT OF HARD WORK FOR MANWEL AND ME DOWN AT THE WATER SPORTS CENTRE ALL SUMMER. WE HAVE DONE A LOAD OF WAKEBOARDING WHICH IS GREAT FUN, MANWEL DOING GOOD 360'S AND ME GETTING SOME GREAT HEIGHT. I ALSO STARTED TO MONO SKI WHICH IS FREAKY FAST AND EXCITING WITH GREAT WIPE OUTS - OUCH!

THIS AFTERNOON HOPE TO GO AND DO SOME TIME ON A THUNDERCAT WITH A FRIEND.

FISHING HAS ALSO BEEN BAD - SEEMS THEY ARE NOT BITING RIGHT NOW, THINK THEY ARE IN DEEPER WATER COS THE WATER TEMP. IS PRETTY WARM .

There's been no wind - so nothing to report. Forecast looking good for next week so maybe will get some surf time and also some new pics.

Quote of the day: ''The Hour of Power'' - Jem Hall Ace Windsurfing Coach

All the above shots were taken by our friend Gavin - not bad cos it was his first time taking shots of us in the water. He'll be taking some more soon we hope and they're going to get better and better and more radical!
