Teaching the Peat Fire Researcher

We hosted a presentation at the Launch Pad island from Professor Mike Waddington, the head researcher who studied the soil in our area before and after the PS33 fire. The community really appreciated his insights.



Here are his excellent notes:


After the presentation I offered a quick windsurf session. Mike had windsurfed a few decades ago and quickly recalled his skills with a quick refresher session on the simulator.



I then put him out on the Ice 4.2 on the big Viper XL and he headed out. The BBTalkin headsets worked perfectly. He was super skilled. I didn’t even need to get the Seadoo for to give a tow as he went out and back easily staying upwind in the nice 11 knot winds.



So Instead I got out the wingfoil and had a good run to show him the newest thing in watersports. I was grateful to have a quick session before taking him back down the river.



Later in the day John and Simon were out - more about the Big Dawgz session in another post...
