The General (5680km): Best session for a ong time. Got to have a little go in the Tinny Creek channel. Once the wind kicked in I could have gone faster, but I was nackered by then. My setup felt sweet. Iso 107, TR8 7.6, SL-P 39 | ||||||||||||||||||
ODIN (38126km): Finally some wind and my boards.......... A bit of a gusty NE but later on into the day it started to pick up but a good sail today after hibernation .. First Try on the Mistral 112 and man this board fangs , sits right on the tail no matter if its honking or in the lulls and the best part how it rides in the chop no more slaping , banging and getting sprayed in the face ... all times were done earlier on in the day and pretty happy so far with the results.... What was a surprise today i had a 38 fin in on the 7.8 and i could have easly dropped fin size with the same sail and sometimes today i was getting overfinned , man the design really changes the aspect of this board , looking forward to some more wind and testing and trying smaller fins cant wait... Good sail with the crew and chris your goin well mate , wait till you get your 112 !!!!

RIGGS (8399km): Wellington Point, QLD, AU Great sail, wind picked up a bit towards the end, would have been enough for the speed board but was too buggered. JP65, NP7, so9 35 | ||||||||||||||||||
mkseven (5336km): 1st sail after 3 months break. Called out of hibernation to help the team sort out the prima donna's. Got down a bit late after helping my sexy single mediterranean neighbour move her bed, so didn't get a chance to try the creek. Found the wind a bit gusty making it a bit hard for my fat post hibernation arse to get going, felt a bit like ol' mate telly tubby. Still after a few tweaks managed to have a good lazy sail on the bump & jump kit. Figured i'd try a few fast runs since my increased bulk landing on a fanatic could break it into quite a few more pieces than they're intended to be in, plus I felt a bit ordinary trying to jump. Pity I didn't make 30 but needed more wind to push my enormous bulk and had the sail rigged like a used garbage bag just for the grunt, hard holding the board flat off the wind in the chop with the single inboard strap positions, got a little interesting at times. All in all a good start to the season, and not too many punk teabaggers on the water. PS. Should I ever get the flu I want the flu that Vando has, lets you sail! Fanatic Freewave 113, 6.2 Naish Force, 29 Select Bump & Jump.
