Hardie (20239km): Sail at Shoe Makers today, Couldn't get my rigging right though. First tried JP 134 and Gaastra GTX 7m, no good in gusts too overpowered. Changed to T1 RS 59, fin too small, came back put a bigger fin on, still too small, rig too heavy and too big in the gusts. wind was anywhere from 5 to about 20kts? Picking up towards end, but I'd had it. Others doing well, but won't steal there thunder. and Congrats to Pepe first Gybe!!!!!!!!! Cool Man!!!!! | ||||||||||||||||||
Decrepit (22059km): Had same prob as Hardy, wasn't really comfortable all day, tried all sorts of stuff but nothing quite did it. Bender didn't help by flying past me and waving good bye as he went off into the distance!!!! Got my best speed in the last session on my speed board with the tushy 6.0, but the 20cm weedy is a tad small for this sail, must finish off the 22cm that's in the pipe line. Great to have a good crowd there today, especially crasher's first team sail | ||||||||||||||||||
Binny (2866km): | ||||||||||||||||||
Bender (19030km): F2 SX M with X15 6.4m and the wonderful 34cm bentonic weed fin(previous life a 52cm Techtonic mirage pointer). Most enjoyable day. Nothing too special. Suprised at my alpha as gybing was tricky in the chop. Tried my other kit breifly but this combo is just too nice.
just checked my data and yes my PB of 23.657 alhpa was dodgy. Bugger!!!!!!! | ||||||||||||||||||
Elmo (15665km): JP Supersport Pro 118L, NP RS Slalom II 7.2m, JP G10 Freeride Weed 36cm. Out at Cobblers with all the crew, had all good intentions of trying a bit of distance sailing, did a run out the back of the platform and realised that something wasn't right with my hand, couldn't grip the boom on the way back, ended up having to hook my wrist over the boom to put some back hand on the boom, saile dmost of the session like that, bloody inconvenient. Was fun going head to head with Bendyman who was doing his best to keep me honest all day and made me push that much harder to saty ahead. The 7.2 and the supersport was awesome for most of the session, till it got to much to try and hang on to, changed down to 6.7m and SX M but the wind eased back after a while, Ye olde Sexxy was sweet in da choppy bits though. Fun but could have done without the pain. Congrats to Bendy and Steve for the PB's | ||||||||||||||||||
evets (10573km): A fantastic sesion with many from the mob plus other very welcome sailors. Longest run 8,76 kms on Google earth 77 N miles on Isonic 105, JP 36 seaweed and 6.5 Tush Raptor. Many thanks Bender for the loan of the board and fin Initally not enough wind, plenty of holes and a few gusts. The Isonic went on to show itself to be absolutely tremendous, leaps onto the plane easily, stays on the plane, handles chop brilliantly, handles being overpowered and ridden by a sailor of low competence and just goes fast!!! After being flatted with the 6.5 I came in, went out again because the Isonic was so good then came in and changed down to 5.7 Raptor and F2 Ride 277. Completely underpowered, cold and generally aching and knackered I gave up after a few runs. Had I stayed ion the Isonic I would have still been flying after a rest All in all a great day although the water was cold and I got cramp in my arms and hands when I came in. And a PB for the 1 hour.... gotta be happy with that! | ||||||||||||||||||
Pepe47 (7101km): Went well until I went to real speed and found I'd left the gps on for the trip home. doh |
