A great fun sesion on the estuary wth MMs and SRMs.

6.5 Raptor with more downhaul than I normally use as the gusts were strong. This made a great difference and it behaved itself in the strongest gusts.

Initially on ISO 105 as the wind was patchy. It then picked up and I changed to the secret waepon..... on this I increased my PBs for 2 sec by a knot and and 5*10 by 2 knots. Home commitments meant I had to leave the water at 9.25..... I am thrilled as I know that I can go faster than today as the wind was not always there and the 5*10s often had sections where I had headed into wind.

Thanks to Decrep and the MM for the loan of the weapon.

I hope I am off the wind far enough: feed back welcomed from you all....below are my 5x 10 tracks from REALSPEED

Strange ole day on the water, the front didn't leave a huge amount of wind in it's trail, still nice and powered for the most part and not having to swim in at all was a beautifull thing.

Was having quite a bit of fun testing different settings on my new toy.

Could only do short return runs then had to chuck a bit more snot in the water and get my breath back. Voice is that bad I sound like Davros now

Was great getting some of the dedicated SRM boys down nice and early.

Good times good times

Tried the Isonic speed special. It does not like the chop. Got a few runs powered up but i never timed my runs well today. Spent most of the day on my 86. Good to have a blast. Every time i gybed to head back up wind the wind would just crank. Oh well it was just not my day.

Nope I was doing all I could today Hards snuck the can of whoopas upon me.

Crasher has shown that he is True MM material by the way he nobbled himself get well soon mate, was a shame not to have you out there.

I would post how he managed to injure himself, but his creativity in how he did it puts me to shame so rather than steal his thunder I'll leave it to him to explain

Well done again guys, stoked to see Evets getting 2 PBs on the weapon!!!!

That's the first PBs for that machine! Turning it is all about going for it, there's no room for half measures, just lean it over as far as you can.

Your runs look deep enough to me, depends how powered up you were Steve.
