Good cruise today on some nice flat water,

F2 Stoke 117, 5.8 KA Koncept, 30 JP supercross. 2 test runs on missile on 26 and 28 AB port assy fins.

Lake George, SA, AU  12 to 22 NW, from the spit.

nice day sun shining and wind was pretty good, on the 5.8 all day was set sweet on full downhaul and a touch of outhaul, just going for some distance to keep the fitness up and Whooo Hooo had a hour pb, the supercross fin being a pointer had a bit more zap then the select weedies I normally use in the stoke, its the fin out of my old torquay board that lives under the caravan, gybed pretty good today didn't miss many as water was pretty flat had 16 gybes in the hour, had a good look around at some other areas of the lake checkng the weed beds, will be fantastic by summer seabreezes.

tested 2 fins on the missile and was very happy with them as was on the 5.8 and usually only use the 5.0 on it, they are port tack assy so will be sweet for nauticals in the summer seabreezes later. never really pushed for top speeds today as was all by myself and didn't see anybody all arvo.

Missed this session, nice PB hour Jimbob, very hard to get a good hour up our way being so gusty, my PB hour of 23knts was done on a 7.5 in winds of around 15-25knts here on the lake only way to keep on the plane.

Thanks guys, i have 2 F2 boards a 117 stoke freeride  and a 62 missile speed, the stoke I always run straps in and a single on back as I just find it comfy that way, was thinking of a slalom board to fill in the gap to get a bit better numbers (mainly alpha and hour )but I seem to be doing ok anyway, my Koncepts are 07's and will only upgrade them when they fall to bits,

Smile Mineral might be over your way in the new year as my oldest boy might be working there again. would be good to catch up.

SmileIzaak did your dad sell his F2 sx small its about what I would want as I really like the F2's.

Good hr Jimbob

I will not make it on the October weekend as I am on my way to Ireland to visit family - keep the lake good for me until the new year session.

Cheers
