Lovely session down in crab land testing out the new MFC fin. Initially I tried to find Decrepit's secret speed spot but by the time I got there the wind had dropped and swung, still got my 2 sec peak there on my first run! Rest of the day was spent wandering around, trying to figure out where to put my weight on this iSo to make it gybe properly.
Also spent a couple of hours chasing Mandurah Mobsters around the estuary, great fun! Evets was hard to catch, Decrep was harder, and catching the furry red muppet is just a pipe dream for me...
I had a go on Decrepits special 2-stage rocket, it didn't go the way I expected! For some reason it feels REALLY draggy just before it gets planing. I think it must have something to do with the bottom shape, but it can be really annoying when you know you should be planing to have all this drag. Once planing the board works fine however. I'm sure that the master will work his magic on it though.
I really really hope that another Pinna sailed today, otherwise all those k's will go to waste
Numbers calculated on Realspeed 1.924, version 1.927 has a memory leak and refuses to calculate my 5x10 numbers...
