Wet weather, typical for my day off work, the surf forecast was 2ft with a light north wind which made the surf a little gutless and mushy, but a day in the house is a day wasted, so i fitted the carver surf rack to my surly pugsley and put on my wetsuit and headed to belhaven beach, and at the last minute i decided to grab the tachyon HD micro camera as i have always wanted to make a surf clip, the mount i used was a delkin suction model which i must admit i was a little worried about its ability to keep my camera in place, but it did its job and the cam never budged from the front of the board, as i predicted the surf was less than perfect and i didn't get many good waves.

EXERCISE WITH THE DUNBAR LIFEBOAT THE JIMMY MIFF.

Monday night exercise with the inshore lifeboat the jimmy miff, decided to take along my tachyon HD camera and film the action, a little warning though it was a little bumpy due to the west wind and the speed of the boat which is 25 knots full speed powered by a mariner 50 hp outboard.

WINDY BIKE RIDE

First film i've made with the tachyon micro HD camera, done a quick loop around john muir this morning and put the camera through its paces, the weather was a little nasty as per usual, the north winds have swung in a more common westerly direction and the temp was about 10 degrees there was a few heavy showers but not to bad once you where in the shelter of the pine trees at john muir country park, there is also a lot of construction going on at jm this week, they are in the process of building new toilets and a shower block which will please me and all the others that surf belhaven beach, happy days.
