After worker at Peli Point. Wind was a little lighter than yesterday with lots of holes and glassy bits, which made for light footed sailing. Good fun practicing board trim in the lulls to maintain max speed. A nice debreather from work.

Mostly under powered but a nice cruisy sail.

Wind looked good for 6.5 sail, but the head failed when rigging. Wind dropped so decided to go for 7.5m, but wind picked up so decided on 5.8m, then wind dropped so decided on 7.5m, which turned out to be really good. And I probably recorded a nm going backwards and forwards to the car!

Ended up really enjoying Xfire 98, 7.5.Turbo and 34 weedy. Got some planing gybes on the flat water, helped by the big sail.

Another fun afternoon at the Dutchies office!

Highlight of the day was an inadvertant one handed laydown gybe! Lost the front hand and the sail glided across parallel to the surface as I came down the swell. Grabbed it again with the front hand, flipped and made it!Embarassed Where is a camera when you want one?

Really pushing the carving limits of the Guerilla today on the outside swells. Good fun.

Another super hour there Jake, only a tad slower than yesterday. I'd like to see what you could do in some consistent wind and flat water! Thanks for the backup, Grumpy!

Thanks Anita, although actually it was me who was backing Grumps!! I got on the water to see his loft sail steaming in towards the beach with purpose and suspected  he may have done a decent hour. Nice one Ian Cool, sorry I couldn't give you better backup for distance!!

Ha! we're even Jake. You carried me on the hr and I carried you on the distance. Thanks for the jelly beans. Haven't had one for a while. The 6.3 was a bit small for a decent hr. When are you going to sell me your 7??

Haha, considering Australia isn't receiving the 2014 Blades Cry, I think I'll be hanging onto mine for a while Tongue out

Mineral, Last year I went on a week's windsurfing holiday and didn't get out once.

The year before I had a week at Lancelin and only got out once.

Didn't book any holidays this year. When the forecast is right I'm just going!

Mineral, rock hard abs after 16 km?! That's pretty impressive in itself, I think I almost did 16 cm once before falling off....
