wicked day at Melville. On the 7.0 the whole day and was on the edge in some of the gusts. Used the Mistral 95 screamer again to push its limits. Great fun full power through the chop hitting 38s. Got 21 runs over 37 but was hitting a bit of a wall. NM had a gybe in it. Got slammed by a bullet that must have been over 40kts in a patch as big as 2 cars, because there was smoke on the water. Havent had that happen for a while. There was enough wind to go much faster as Darryl proved at the end, just before it shut down. I pulled out the old 54 speed to see if I could sneak one past Daz, but the wind didnt come back. Awesome fun, had a great time blasting around with the crew. Hope we get some more of those.

yep nicely spotted Elmo..

the 19cm fin was a too small on the square course..we where getting peaks on both tacks, and that was the first time using that fin.

the slalom board was consistently quicker with bigger fins.

(could of also been edging closer to the camera as wellWink)
