What a day!
Nobody could come sailing with me
Boo Hoo
Had to harden up and go by myself
After being involved with the Kite Boys these speeds seem very lame
First proper sail since the wrist surgery in late June
Can't be too hard on myself!
It was nice to see Chris out on his new board pulling 46's
But he left early and I was alone again
Wish I didnt watch that killer-killer whale programme last night...
Big thanks to Mikey H for being my Taxi/Caddy
The Mystery van shall be ready for the next big blow
Rode Craig Loomes' awesome stick
Thanks Craig!
You can have it back now!
I don't think I would have been much faster/slower on my one
But I am definatly going to make the back end more like yours
Faster still!
It really eats the chop up well
Very confidence inspiring-
We had a weird wave bouncing off the cliffs at the boat house end sending a lovely 6in to1 foot swell into the sandbar
Combined with the following chop...not an ideal water state
could'nt be bothered loading it in sorry
and fin too...
it was a 175 mm Loomo/BW sb assy shear tip
40 mm of that is the shear tip so thats quite a small fin
Awesome!
Rock solid on both tacks
Could be smaller I think
Wind was very gusty and shifty thru west to ssw with big holes down the course
I was at the bottom nearly getting blown into the water when Chris was at the top with no power...
Looking forward to getting back with the full crew
And Mr Olver- I went to put my bag on my arm after you used it and it fitted my leg
Masseeve Biceps Bro!
You would have killed it today!
