7.0 R4; RRD X-F 90; Delta 27 @ Melville...

Actually started on the 7.8 after some "advice" but went quickly to the 7.0....Very tired from yesterday so struggled especially towards the end...3 days straight of good breeze...nice!

Started on 7m Lightning 98Xfire & 36cm changed down about 10 mins later to wave gear for a bit of chop hopping 6m Rock, 102 RRD FSW, 34 Choco.

Gave up on fighting chop and the masses. Great to see Damo stuck with it and got some rewards for it.

Peel Inlet, Wa, AU, RRD 114 R1 7.8 CA 34. Started the day at Liptons and tried the Mistral 55 for a few runs but way under finned so swapped to the bigger gear for a run with Matty down to Novara, when i got there decided to do a few NM runs, then headed back up to Liptons. By then was up to 100km and was feeling a bit shattered but still had to give the speed run a go. Used the Mistral 55 and a reboxed lockwood 28.5 pointer. Only tried a few runs but always managed to pick up weed and entered the speed run side ways. Called it a day before I had a big crash. 

Well done to the guys knocking out the distance today, it was not easy out there in the middle. 

6.5 T4 & 94 Lt Cross - for a very short time

Then changed to 84 Cross, then put up the 6m T4, then changed to the LE 24 Weedie

Was a bit hairy today - a little overpowered & a lot of traffic

Came in & had a big rest with the CWA then went back out after a few people had gone home

All the good stuff done in the later session except the alpha (managed this on the bigger sail & board

On holidays tomorrow so hoping to do it all again (or is that being greedy?)

Good on ya Damo - 2PB's - Fantastic 

Nice  cornering Darryl
