Light wind riding here is a dream compared to over there as well.

In S.A. it can be blowing (and does often) solid 15 and you won't have much fun. Why? The current combined with waves steal some of the wind AND you are drifting down the beach. It basically becomes 12 with a steady current ripping you downwind :?

Oh well, the wave riding come fall/winter is going to be insane 8)
Yeah, can't wait till this winter, i'll be driving.

maybe i'll have to come visit down there, maybe catch some nice wave riding?
