What a privilege to be at Sandy Point for the windiest day I have ever seen, and for a day that will go down as one of the great days in GPS-Speedsurfing history. A big congratulations to all of the Victorian KA guys who really showed how it was done.
Obviously I was grotesquely overpowered on the 5.2. I think I had the biggest sail out there and I am only 78kg (plus 6kg lead) so it was a real battle - but having flown  four hours and driven three to be here, I had to give it a crack. Mainly it was a case of crouching by the waters edge and waiting for a lull that never came. My peak speed as above was probably done in the lightest lull of the day, when I was able to momentarily sheet in. Of the six runs attempted, the other five all ended in crashes!
Amongst the group on the beach it was widely discussed that if only the wind would back off by 20 knots, it would have been perfect!
Anyway, very happy to have survived such a wild day and to have a PB next to my name. Even better was to have witnessed the elite in some of  the greatest speed-sailing ever done; Spotty, Slowboat and Tony you were truly unbelievable today!
