Nice work peeps. Was thinking about liptons regularly yesterday whilst at the pond.

Ji big respect on the Pb, super speeds.

Stroppo, I've just noticed your crazy fast hour

Huge effort dealing with that ugly channel chop multiple times, guess the flat water for the turns partially makes up for it 

... the real hero of the day was Pepe, who phoned the ambulance for the injured kiter, gave them directions, and kept a watch on the rescuers to make sure they did the right things.. He did a great job supporting the patient's head (he had a serious neck injury) and keeping him calm.

and then didn't even get to sail... We were all a little circumspect about going out after that.

The kiter story:

Pepe and I were standing around deciding what to rig, when there was a bit of a commotion in the water, someone yelled "call an ambulance" and a kiter rushed up and asked if they could borrow a board to bring in an injured kiter who was paralysed. Pepe phoned the ambulance and gave them directions. (It was interesting that although there were heaps of locals there I was the only one who knew the name of the street we were on - from directing Pinnaroos on how to find Liptons.) One of the kiters was in the water supporting the injured one, then they put him on the board and floated him in to shore. They wanted to carry him onto the beach but Pepe insisted they leave him where he was, on the board at the water's edge until the ambulance got there. I was relieved to find out he could move his feet and hands (he was not paralysed). Pepe supported his head and I got a windproof jacket and towel to put over him so he wouldn't get chilled in the wind. It turned out he had "spear tackled" into the shallows, hit the bottom with his head and then his body had folded over his head. A kiter nearby saw him face down in the water, waving his arms in distress, but the injured one couldn't right himself. Another kiter who could see what was happening but was too far away, was yelling - get him out of the water, he's drowning!, but the closest kiter first had to depower his kite so he could safely help the man. He turned the man over, and supported him until the board came out to lie him on. The injured man was 72 years old, and said he saw his life flash before his eyes. He was in a lot of pain at the base of his neck. I have no doubt he has a serious neck injury, but the fact he still had good movement and feeling in his hands and feet was a good sign. Prayers for a full recovery, Ian!

That is scary! Well done you two!

PS what is the name of the street?

Estuary Place. The car park at the end of Estuary Place.

Good work there Pepe and Anita

Stroppo, I am very impressed that you can take your front hand off the boom mid gybe to wave to me.
