LG agaain, SSE 20 to 30,

JP54 70litre slalom, 21 decrepit weedy, 4.9 loft racing blade.

nice day good crew pumping out speed runs, lots over 40.

my team mates Hamma and Chris D smashed me.

really really got the JP dialed in so much so ain't gunna use a speed board again.

didn't have a lot of energy today so saved some for the same forcast tmro. the water really pushed out with the wind today weed to the top everywhere.

Sorry sammy no track pics mate.

Lake George, SA, AU

iS87 / 7.0R7 / 31 BPWS (39kt first run)

iS87 / 6.2R7 / 19 BPKestrel (37's and 38's, and it whislted so loud that people on the bank could hear it)

iS87 / 6.2R7 / 24 Vector WS (got my best speeds here, 43.88 on the screen)

iS87 / 6.2R7 / 21 TribalWS (41's, 42's, and a 43.7 on the screen)

M47 / 6.2R7 / 24 Vector WS (second time on this board, got a 39, but the iS87 is the board for me)

What a day! Another 800km road trip, with this amazing session at Lake George.

My first run out on the 7.0 was a 39, and after changing to the 6.2, it just got better each run.

I was just having so much fun on the flat weed beds that I didn't focus on alphas, nm's etc.

I must have done 50 runs on the weed.

Great to meet so many from around Aus, and to see the old faces again. Also great to share the stoke of Artur's first 40 knot run.

Too much fun!

OMFG! I got a PB 5x10!! Well that's bloody fantastic!!

Struggled getting going and couldn't get up wind to do a full run. Should have went quicker but just couldn't powered down the run.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I never thought I'd windsurf again after my motorbike accident, let alone speed sail. It took a few years to ease back into windsurfing, but yesterday had me wanting more and more wind, for more and more speed. The buzz and the adrenaline are so addictive. Too much fun! Smile

Great to sail with you again. Been so long.
