Wasn't sure how the afternoon was going to pan out. When I arrived the wind looked a bit sketchy so rigged my 6.0 Daytona on my 93 S-Type. Headed up to the top of the runway and has some pretty quick runs. Wind got stronger and stronger throughout the afternoon and at times the 6.0 was a bit too much to handle. Got some really great runs with some big gusts in the flat water near shore. Scratched up a couple more PBs so am a very happy chappy indeed Laughing

Gremlins are back. It's taken me a few days to download this because it just refused to dowload. Also I have a couple of days data on the GPS which makes it more confusing. Hence why my distance is higher than the lazy usual of around 60km.

The runs include a combination of my slalom gear and my JP FSW board. The FSW was a surprise. It was so comfortable charging downwind over chop, and with a 5.8m wave sail it was no problem consistently clocking speeds around 30 knots. I'll have to try a blade fin in this board. Smile

Jon I think I better up my game, you're right on my tail with those speeds. Either that or I need to give you a crappier fin. Good work. Laughing

Great sail Jon, Pam and i saw you blast to the beach, so fast! The sailing standard down there is so high. Sorry I chickened out. Its a big change coming from 10 to 15 knot winds and 7m plus sails to decent winds and sub 6m sails. Fortunately I was able to pick up my better half from work on the way home.

Hi Keef, great to have you on board! No, I don't always take my GPS out, only when I am up for some speeding. If it's bump and jump I won't use it as I may lose it.
