Holey Crap, these results were really unexpected, WOOHOO!

JPSL66 Tribal WS29 NP Hellcat 6.7. Funny day, when I left work in Busso the trees were not really selling an afternoon on the water. Unfortunately Chris wasnt able to go and Marcus wouldnt reply to messages or calls but in the end I just went to see what was going to happen as the weather followed me up the coast. I had the JP78 and EVO7.8 so bases were covered. At Glory Holes the wind was in and crankin so the 5.7 almost had a session, but it dropped a little and the water was so flat the the 6.7 was rigged. On the water the conditions were quite easy and the kit just worked. I saw Marcus pull in with another, on tiny wave kit (too tiny in the end) so I came in to give the hurry up. Windtech & Evo5 5.8, potential there! I gave a DH tweak and then went out again. This tweak made me fly and felt realy awesome. We did a number of deep bare aways being carful over the sand bars and thats where i really flew, I can remember the NM & the gust  that picked me up. Marcus must have a speed run too, shame that he didnt wet is Fanatic114 or have the other FAnatic boards in his possession. I also spend quite a bit of time doing shorter runs with gybes at both ends and had some real nice ones too. Overall a real great day.

Appart from the bruise that i will have in a day or two.

Go esteemed team leader!!! wish I could have made you sail faster, but no outboards allowed right??

When is Zuls posting, we at least two to make it count for this month right?

Brilliant times and stretching the gap, but worry less, Im studying stretch's technique and applying what Im learning so watch out when the medicos left me off the leash again!!

Well done everyone! Dave is right, Summer is coming! all welcome to chase Dave and queens and knaves in Augusta..... he's usually the one blowing the gybes and then blistering past us on the straights! He is the KA72 king of augusta after all! But watch out for Zuls, crazy fast but very unpredictable!! we need him there to make us all look sane!

 

Would love to see you all light up the flat conditions down there, keep an eye on the conditions, solid SE will make you all smile!! All welcome :)

And Zuls, Awesom straight line speed but we expect huge fitness improvements when you get back from Exmouth (lucky bugger on long service). The WT may be retired til Augusta speed runs this summer. And lots of feed back about the Fanatic boards, all 3!
