Wow that's was abit more than forecast - 42knt gust recorded at 3pm. Didn't bring the small gear and paid the price. Very shallow everywhere.

Glory Holes, Australind, WA, AU.  Arrived earlish with Decrepit and Peter and had a very nice couple of hrs with the 7.8.  Wind had a lot of north in it so runs were fairly short.  Was joined by BSN010 and Waricle and unknown.   Then wind streghtened a lot so came in and rigged 5.8. Stayed on the big board in an attempt to keep the fin from dragging.  Reg, Woody and Antman, stretch arrived and wind dropped but just managed to keep planning.   For some reason was really struggling with the gybes with this 'new' sail and with the tide so low once stopped had to walk out to get started again.  Then wind booted in near westerly so got a few nice long runs in, then wind picked well up and started to become too much for me.  At this time sail started disintegrating all by iteself so the combo of too much wind and sail falling apart meant I pulled the pin.     Fellow team members just got going so acted as camera man for a while until got too cold.  Need to get a smaller sail to handle winds like these..conditions were very good though.   120 Tabou rocket, 7.8 Severne Overdrive M2 then KA5.8.  Will post some picks/video soon...there maybe some surprises coming in following posts..

Very windy at Australind with Ant and Flex and Woody and also Stretch, Waricle and Decrepit from Mandurah....positively crowded!  A bit disappointed with my NM.  I stopped too early!  I was sat on a consistent 31 knots for 1.7km and then decided I had gone far enough so gybed and stopped to adjust my sail...bugger!  Ant and Woody seemed to be going well....Wink

An unexpected epic day. Rigged the Evo 5.8 in 15kts hoping for the 25kt forecast and used the 56 Falcon. Wind came in as we rigged and saw a 40.5 peak on the first run so went back for the JP50 speed. Seemed to work until a spinout on the run. Went back in to get the 18 fin to replace the 16 for a bit more grip. Stretch was rigging and thought the 16 was right so went back out to some nice gusts and kms of flat. One massive gust in particular took 4 attempts to get going. Difficult when 40+ in 15-20cm of water. video shows my stuff ups but was lucky the gust lasted a few minutes. Top day with Ant and thanks for the lift down mate, Reg, Flex, Stretch, Waricle, Decrepit, Dave the local.

Well done Reg and crikey Woody!   3 PB's!  When I left you had 2. Mega congrats.   Epic session.  Will be awsome to see what Antman posts...though Reg did say he had a 'ah shit' moment on the water when his watch said 'delete log' Y/N?  Lets hope he pushed the right button

Great backup Ant, with a second best 5X and third best 2 sec in a season of stellar scores from you. Well done!

Nearly 42 kn 2 sec team ave, 39kn + 5X, and 35 kn nm, giving us a big jump up the ladder. Those scores will take some chasing!

Whoo hoo! What a day.

A few snaps from today..not great res as they are just screen shots from the 360 and gpstc further degrades them...supposesly you can extract full 5.6k stills but so far haven't worked out how as they all come out distorted...got piles of video with everyone flying past but I think it will make for a boring video

Stoked to see those numbers coming out of GH! 

Woody, that is so good to see 3 PB's coming out of the one session. No guts, no glory (holes!)

Reg and Flex, great to see some more pb's added to the pinna totals

Flex, here's hoping that today made up for missing the good conditions a bit over a week ago. I think that NM made the drive worth while today Cool

And Ant, your numbers did not go unnoticed, especially with a turn like that!! Superb

I could feel your frustration at those false starts Woody. Surprised there wasn't a lot of leaping about and whooping when you looked at your watch.

Not the greatest vid since I was being Colonel Sanders and being a (cold) chicken and not sailing in the strong wind.   Taken with the 360 which was not ideal camera for this kind of footage as resolution is quite low, especially for shots where sailors aren't that close.  A bit repetitive but needed to fill to fit the tune.    But was a hell of a day so posted here for those that were there that may care.   https://youtu.be/71e_w-4TbQo
