Late and fun afternoon session at Mentone with Jman and WindRider. SE on the dial but turned out to be a bit more south in it maxing around 23kts. Was well powered with the gear and had some good runs over the waves. Took my waterproof sports cam out, can't wait to see the footage.

Great sail at mentone this arvo with Steve and Juergen, not conditions for going fast, at times the Syncro felt a bit big but when I tried the wave board I was a bit under done, thats the excuse I need to get something in between Cool

Guys,

I got home last night hoping to post the fastest top speed for our group at Mentone only to find the SD card was locked when I put it back in after Sundays session. But luckly the GPS has recorded my data internal and now I have recovered the data to post.

It was a good bump and jump SSE session at Mentone with Jerry and Juergen. These type of days is what the Kode 94 is design for. I only had about an hour or just under an hour on the water, being late from work. It was the last session for the Adventra at Mentone. Still hoping for a Elwood and Bono session before the van.

Just edited the onboard video from Mentone today, not a bad coverage, had to reduce res, was way too big for Youtube. It can't compare to to Steve's GoPro HD, but not too bad. Will take it out next for a speed run on nice flat water.

BTW pretty good footage when Jerry and Matt came into the picture about half way through the clip on the way in.

I'm up for tonight if I can get away from work. Monday is out for me, but Sunday could be good. If I don't have the van by this weekend I might just stay on the bay to reduce the Kms on the car.

Thanks guys, will try on top of the mast one time. Everything is scaled down a bit due to wide angle lens. Not as much as the GoPro though, which has a huge coverage.

Just checked the forecast for the weekend, looks decent at this stage later Sunday or Monday. Will keep an eye on it, perhaps worth a trip down to Inverloch or so.

BTW I'm up for a sail this arvo after work again. Have to get the most out of daylight saving.
