Kev (1906km):
3 hours ago Marmong Point
SE-S 5-20 knots
Mikes Lab Formula, NP RS Flight Evo 111 6.6m, Axis 799 & 1099.
Certainly a challenging SE followed by a Southerly Storm Front.
Used the same set up as Saturday to see how it would go in marginal conditions.
Wasn't too bad when the wind was there. Big wind shifts between bays and plenty of calm spots in the "Dead Zone".
Sometimes I could get across the zone but mostly not.
Came in to change the 799 to a 1099 front wing.
Lots more flights and traversing calm spots until a 20 knot Southerly came in.
Big wing was way too big and done a couple of runs before it became hairy rather than fun.
As always the breeze lasted 20 minutes and died off.
Plenty of fresh water from yesterdays rain and a few floating objects around.
