Great arvo session with Dave, Sick-em, Rick, Johnno, Max & many more.

JPXcite110-Loft 6.6 02 - Gybesport40Carve fin.

Kyeemagh, NSW, AU

Just nudging 20knts lots of holes no wind close to shore or near the runway.

Wind was very Light when I got there started setting up my big board to find I hadn't put my bigger sail in the car.

So I ended up rigging small (as above) I was a bit worried because I havn't been able to get the above seup working well for a while.

I opted for the bigger Fin to try and compensate for not having the bigger sail and paid very paticular to my sail setup. It worked pretty well

So I'm happy.Cool So nice to sail after work on a sunny day.

Fun after work sail. Very gusty but looks like everywhere was. Chris and I had some fun runs with a couple of short bearaways.

Wind died after a thunderstorm out west stopped the seabreeze. very happy to get out, after work sails have been rare this summer.

Knee holding up pretty well, lots of SUPing & exercises help. Speeds are slowly creeping up, as Rexy said "baby steps". Im having fun.

Falcon 121, RSR evo III 7.8, JP 44.

Well hey, at least it was a sail! Wind was up and down like a prostitutes panties and I was under sailed as it was. Went the RS 6.7 when I should have rigged my 7.5. The good thing though is my new Black Project Type R fin was fantastic. It didn't let go once which was nice. I'd love to try it back to back with the Type S version in the same size  just for comparisons sake, but at least this one pointed nicely which is what it's supposed to do!

Good to see some Cockies come out of the woodwork today, Sparky, Dave, Wineman and Rick. Nice also to do some drag racing with Johnno and I have to give credit to Remi on his Exocet who absolutley SMOKED us all. Shame he doesn't wear a GPS and join the Cockroaches. Went past me one time and made it look like I was standing still Frown

Thanks Mick and Johnny, its been pretty flat everytime Ive sailed and it still twinges if Im not careful so Ive taken Andrews advice and taking it very easy. Gybes are the worst, even with the brace it still twists a bit so my turns are like a Bombora Tri-fin, 100 meters aroundUndecided Brace is a huge help Boss man.
