Primbee, NSW, AU

20-25 knots westerly

JP Slalom II 84, KA Race 5.5, Delta 20

iSonic 90, Loft Switchblade 7.3,  20cm MUF Delta

Started out on the small gear when it was a bit stronger and was a bit under done, then changed up to the bigger gear for a cruise. It was good to see a lot of old faces I haven't seen for a while.

This graph shows the story. 35 knot gusts followed by a 12 -15 knot average

Well sometimes cortisone injections dont work and this one didnt. Been 12 days since I had it but shoulder is bad again and just struggling to hold on at the end of a long run at Peely. Back to square one.

Very off and on day but some good bullets at times. The weed is horrendous, never seen it that thick. Plenty of over the bars to day from a few guys including me but GregK had a bad one.

The water is very flat in closer but most of us stayed up high to avoid the Titanic sized clumps. I started off with my usual 45 deg 19cm but got flung a few times. Changed to a Delta 20 which Ive never used before and was quite impressed. Except when I tried a few gybes like normal and just popped the fin out of the water, splat Yell

Had some great runs down the edge in a bit of chop so happy with the speed.

Awesome to catch up with old mate Rob, Pete, Gabe and Chris from Wallis Lake. Heaps out. Had a bit of a fang with Millsy, good fun. Thanks to Mick for the download help.

Falcon TE 99, Evo 8 7.0, 19 weedy and Delta 20.

Happy to see you guys made the most of it. Great speed and distance well worth the drive.

Been waiting for a weekend westerly since May only to miss out on this one with a rolled ankle oh well that's the way it goes.

Good to see you guys today a bit disappointing that Primbee does it usual trick at the moment. Conspiracy theory for sure. Larko might have the magical potion for you will find out tomorrow.

Nice one boys. Good to see you Larko, and well done on the speed. I had a better sail Sat with the BP fin and no catapult. Costly exercise but lucky no personal damage. Look after that shoulder.
