Francois Peron National Park, WA, AU

fun sail at the cleavage...

was starting to find some speed when my first stack in years took place finishing the sess early and missing the

best of it (according to 25 and bender) had a rail trip in the high 30s and snapped the uni.

this gave me a walk of shame of about a km...

mistral47/lockwood-curtis 21/ evo2 5.5

still good to see a 40.17 on the dial

well done to the pinna boys and Bendy,Cheryl and 25

the conditions certainly weren't easy..

 

edit-added the morning sess which had a 35.5 on the dial and a gybe in the mile.

The left breast and the clevage [two sessions combined]

Session from noon with 7.1 KA Race 2013, F2 SXS and 25 Slingshot.

Session from about 3.30 pm with 6.3 KA Race 2013, CA SP47, 21 Slingshot.

Fully trashed now!

Some nice runs out the end of the clevage. Had a big off on what felt like my best run - not to be according to the analysis programs!

Great work for those who got the PBs - most notably from Cheryl!

before the 39.5kn stack and snapped uniYellTongue out.

Well done fella's. No pain no gain hey.Nothing like a SB flogging to bring you back to reality (otherwise you'd get too relaxedWink

You didn't happen to find a green handled philips head screw driver where your track starts and finishes. Bloody left it there lol.Smile.

At least the uni let go, not something made from flesh and blood. )

Great numbers boys (and girl).  Shame about the uni and busted wrist Snides.  Also do you guys think you could talk Shark Bay up a little more as it just sounds horrific up there. Wink

Have you guyz contacted Rossco about a charter to Petit Point? Tides just arent favourable for the area you guyz are sailing in atm, whereas at Petit, the tide duznt matter, you just keep sailing in different areas as the tide moves, really low tide the freeway of love sandbar (6 to 9km) comes into play, at high tide the Amigo's sandbar (1.5km) comes into play.  I'm talkin glass in 30kts here boyz & galz. The only problem with the 1.5km sanbar at aaaaaaaamigo's is that the wind might be too square, but its an opportunity to set an Australian record for Alpha?
