Fanatic Falcon 104, North Warp 7.0, Gun Weed Control 29.

Fabulous day on the water - wild, gusty - way stronger than either Bellambi Point or Albion Park Airport were registering (in my view).  Great crowd out.  Happy days and some PBs to boot.

My family and I narrowly missed being run over by a P plater trying to drift the tail of his car last night so it's great to be alive and on the water!

Primbee, NSW, AU  Tried out the JP 81l SL and NP 6.2 RSSL, gave it away after a few runs and

                             went to the freeride gear because of the chop and gusty NE.

Shared gps session, me and Mark, I think most of the numbers are from Mark though. Pretty gusty NE.

First session with the new Pryde RS racing evo7's. Unbelievable the power these sails have got and how solid they feel. Didn't fully downhaul as they are new which would explain the powerful feel. Very quick in the choppy conditions, also tried the weed bank but it was just too gusty. Very happy with their first run.

6.4 & 5.8 evo7, Custom slalom Chester. 25-30kt NE.

Primbee, NSW, AU NE, up to 20 knots - Gusty

A fun sail with some of the crew. Tide was out so hard to get to the calm water.

Does Tex still windsurf?

FINALLY CRACKED 30KNOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Started a bit late as was helping my old man have a go at windsurfing with me on the SUP rescue boat. Awesome day on the water once I got out albeit very tiring in the gusty 5-25knt NE. Rigged big, even though was way overpowered, to work on my speed as there were some nice gusts off the end of the jetty and even better ones closer to shore for the speed run even though there wasn't much water. My second run after I got out felt really good and had a look at the gps after and it was 29.91 which was a PB but was pretty annoyed I just didn't tip it over 30. Caught a perfect gust on one of my last runs down the shore but didn't feel that fast because the water was so flat but finally cracked it!!!

Sensational PB's Eckas👍. Terry dont give up on JP " go hard or go home" thats the spirt 😉 you can do it, PB's... cant wait for LG. Girls down Port Beach surfing shark spotted from aerial plane they closed the beach.  Was great to watch the lake with sail board's on the water from mum and dad's place. Don't promise kid's things as you get held ransom 😡 next time...

Nice speeds Mark! Still, the Evo7's didn't quite match the KA Race 5.5 2012 a couple of years back on a slalom board! Wink

 

Just kidding mate sweet as!

 

I was there at Xmas but the wind was way to gusty and north. Hope to see you this year down at Lake George? You'd love it!

Great stuff Chris - congratulations.  I didn't recognise the lime green NP Fusion, but  you had it trimmed in really nicely on your bear-aways and were really hooting. 

Did Santa come late this year - Bushy with his set of new Severne R6's about to arrive and MT with his sweet new NP evo 7's!  I must have forgot to put my order in with the jolly red fat fellow this year....or I ended up on his naughty list!
