Evan (7124km):  3 categories    Inverloch - Waited around for a few hours in the morning as the wind went from pretty much nothing to 12-20 knots by late morning. Rigged the 6.5 Ezzy Freeride & Futura101 with MFC 34cm Liquid Pro. Low-ish tide with sandbar exposed so some reasonably nice runs in the gusts. Wind picked up to 20-30 knots by early afternoon. Higher tide and choppy water. Changed down to the 5.5m Ezzy Wave and Kode86 with 26cm Drake fin. Quite over powered in parts but managed a hour or so on the water before the wind increased even more.
Quite a few people on the water. Great day sailing with Jman, Drift, Ian, George, Megs and many more... | ||||||||||||||||||
Drift (6257km):  Inverloch- Westerly turning WSW up to 30 kts
A pretty amazing day , wind varied from being too much to not enough then back again. A big tide meant the run was longer than usual. Two things which made the day interesting: 1) Early in the day, the was only George, Megs and I out and as a rain front approached, I took off on the run. The rain front hit and I stayed ahead of it for about 250 metres and the wind it generated was awesome. The front then overtook me and it was like a white out! I couldn't see 5 metres ahead or beside me. A bit freaky when the sandbar is only 2 metres away and youre travelling at 25knots. This ended up being my fastest run of the day.
2) I was flying down the run when I noticed it getting a bit too shallow for my liking so I went to gybe. Half way round my harness hook got caught and I got flung..but here's the totally in explainable bit. I managed to come totally out of the seat harness as I hit the water and when I surfaced and went over to the board the harness was still hooked into the harness line!
