Got down late so only got a quick sail in. The water was ugly. Super high tide with knee high rolling chop.

Very square with massive bullets in the mid 30's. As i slingshotted into the gust of the sesh i got stood up. Tripped a rail and copped the boom acrros the chest. Feeling broken now. All my peaks we heading towards land. My best was only 40m's from shore. It was one hairy slow down!!Laughing

NOTE- see pic below where i got my peak 2sec of 38kntsLaughing

Yes, I know what it feels like heading into that shore at full tilt and just hoping you can pull up in time. Thrilling! (I wasn't going as fast as you were though)

Could have been a mighty fine attempt to reach Old Coast Rd on the full if you had keep going straight. As Firie would say "I bet you had eyes like dinner plates"
