Solid sesh at Woodies dodging the teabaggers Tongue out

SSW 18-23K, maybe a little more earlier in the sesh?

Manta 59 + 6.6 Koncept + 26 Falcon

Wind seemed to back off a bit.  Took a wind reading when I arrived and it was solid 25K gusting to 28K!  Nowhere near that by the time I called it a day (after destroying my boom)   Cry

Lost it in a nice gust as I was starting my last run of the day and went over the handlebars...ripped the boom arm clear off (separated at both ends)!!

Good sesh, but still wanting for a genuine 25-30K buffalo.  18-23k seems the typical seabreeze this summer and it just ain't enough for us heavyweights!

Had a great arvo all over the river, just dialing in the new lines and getting the footstraps sorted. Started at peli just tuning the gear. Then later sailed up to point walter and had a sail with Lao (Thanks for showin me the ropes up there Mark!).

You'll never guess Mark, my boom arm cracked first leg back to peli so I limped back and the arm sheared off on the beach...ssooooooo lucky there!!!!

Great to finally meet the Mr Hardpole up at the point too!

All up a good little sail for the day Laughing

Peli Point sesh. Was a lil undercooked on the 5.5 but a nice way to unwind after work. Couldn't spot the Snake, I guess I just have to look for someone with broken gear Wink

Got out just after the windiest part of the graph, Undercooked on 5.8 and 24cm. Should have used the 28cm (excuses , excuses).

Had a 23 alpha at 70mYell Disappointing session.

Sorry I dragged you up to PtW Snake. Glad you got back ok.

Good to see Chad and Hardpole up there. Hopefully Hardpole has a PB. Looked to be going well.

First time at WP with some wind, got there early and had the place to myself until Mark turned up. Really thought I would improve the 2sec but just wouldnt happen. I think it might be time I got a proper fin. Met Jake, still a couple if Pinnas to meet I think.  Wind seemed to pick up. Luckily I looked at the time at 6:15 and realised I was supposed to be half way home (restaraunt booking) - so derigged in a rush, made it with a few minutes to spare. I think this should put me over the 1000K cumulative.

Well done on the 1K Hardpole. Just got to bear away another 15 degrees and yes a better fin would help. I have a 26 powerbox flying objects weedie you could have a try on.

Well done on the corners, Mineral.
