Kyeemagh, NSW, AU || 17-22kt NE || Exocet RS6/RS4, 7.7TR, 46T-Lab/38 Pheonix

Early to mid afternoon session in the fresh NEr. Cloudy but still really consistant given the forecast for storms. Lost a footstrap screw from the RS6 mid way through the sesh, but in any case there was still more good luck in the afternoon than bad...

Tried a new set of DaKine straps with the RS4 which were super nice. Comfy without the excessive neoprene bulk, and they keep their shape well. Big thanks to Remi!

Basically overdone for most of the session, not to worry with a TR though, its huge wind range, and ability to spread out the impulse of almost any gust that came through.

Really happy with the gybing today too. Managed a few flips with the 7.7 which were pretty much instantaneous. Never done it like that before with a good sized race sail - felt just awesome.
