was wondering what the best places would be for the different wind directions for slalom in Perth

SW - I am at lucky bay

NW - I am at foil vile

S - I AM NOT SURE

SE - I think point Walter would be good

I am unsure for all of the other directions

I am open for better spots with the places that I already know so just let me know where you think the best spots are for all the different directions

cheers Aiden

SW- pelican point (opposite side of river from foilville)

NW- lucky bay (melville) wait for the fronts to come through.

S- pelican point is the only place that sort of works. Otherwise take a trip down to safety bay with weed fin.

SE - pelican point but sail out on the eastern end of the river, or point walter.

foilville works for a lot of wind directions, easterly through northerly to sou' sou' westerly. Southerly there is offshore. You can sail lucky bay on a sw, great for practicing flat water gybes, but the wind is far more consistant at pelican point, and you can do an upwinder to melville and back downwind to peli point.
