S2 venom 6.3 ,falcon 115, select v max 35

Off shore so hard to get out and in hence big board, blowing over 35 in the end and everything canceled.

I kept crashing one at near 34 knots picked up and spat out too big a board would have been good on the 89. Didnt get the naughtical in.

Very sore not good on the back.

Yee haa! I've lost a bit of interest in speed sailing lately as we haven't had any flatwater for so long. Today re ignited my interest..

 Got there at 10.30 wind was up and down came in strong at 12ish and I didn't really feel like going out. I was having trouble walking into the gusts and thought I'd be flattened 

Strong and choppy getting down to the bottom but for once there was a nice big flat area.. Mm potential here - flatwater and strong wind..

It was still a bit patchy but i got one run 35.11kts odd and was pretty chuffed with that. I wasn't really aiming for anything..

Some really strong stuff came through so I went for it. In the middle of the run I scored a mega gust and it felt like the gear & I were going to be lifted but I got it back together and bore off..I reckon you could have heard me yodelling from the shore in adrenaline..about a 8 yodell run..

I was stoked to see the 2 sec..

I didn't score anymore good gusts when I was in the right spot in the flat. I was hoping for a better 5 x 10 but by the time it really kicked in I was too tired and an accident waiting to happen. I did a lot of walking today..

 It's been a long time since I've been out in such consistently strong wind as the walk in. I had to sit out some gusts and at one time there were willi willies going past ahead of me and the lake was smoky. I'm glad that missed me!

 Matt , Greg , Milsy , Pete , Norm , Victor , JD  and LD.

 I'm buggered but happy..

Exocet Cross 94, Mauisails Legend 5.0 / 4.2 - Wind W 25-35 knots

Super windy day, probably the windiest i have ever sailed.   Huskisson was too sketchy for me (straight offshore) so checked out Paradise Beach over at Sanctuary Point.  Nice to share some runs with daffy, kato and Ado from the pit crew plus akim and alex.
