don't actually know what im posting as current gps results doesnt support catalina but hopefully it will be fixed but what i got from the gt31 i think all PB's have been broken! so well stoked..as usual bit gutting that im like a point nothing of a milestone..i,e 40 average but thats normal for me lol, only bagged a couple of 40's previously but think i went over 40 like 10 times..41 put a smile on me.. 42 nice! shame it wasnt a touch more westerly could of been more but stoked at the speeds considering the chop..
the new koncept speed was used in anger with what i thought was a tribal asy 20 but was the 21 and both are massive improvements, the sail felt great and fin was rock even over the death chop at 42kts albe the brown trail behind me. great work from peter weitenberg on the sail progress and awesome fins.
left at 3.30am and on water at 9am with a forecast that was to trail off around 2pm..it didnt and went nuclear and with my 95kg and approx 7kg lead and now shattered i couldnt hold it wish i saved myself and bagged a couple of runs before it went stupid for the 40 average but hey
the vibe at kirby is awesome everyone so freindly as usual great chats and everyone pushing..adrian did some great speeds and wont forget the look on his face going over the death chop..gary was flying and getting faster on his slalom kit..dont know the guy on the mistral but he went well and matapult got some great speeds out of his slalom board..shame he didnt get there earlier to settle in he rocked up for a nuking!
happy days
