Jimmy's beach, 20-25knots

starboard 161, vmg k70, rsr 10.7

what a day, blew like stink, mast high swell breaking near the top tack, smooth water on the down wind run between the swell.

It was a very interesting experience riding on waves that size on a formula rig, it did a good job of getting rid of the wind chop.

I had been hoping for a 4th race to put the guys with their 9.8m storm rigs in their place when the wind died down to 10knots

Amazing report guys. Those speeds are just amazing on a formula board. I cant imagine tacking into mast high swell. You must loose the wind while you are in the trough?
