Well a one hour Pb I wasn't expecting that

Well done scotty and graceman!!

Are we all posting Trackpoint Alphas?

I think we are supposed to as it's more accurate, someone please enlighten if I'm wrong

Well done boys, just keep the PBs coming

Looks like some confusion today as no-one seems to have done the 90+km

I'm still posting doppler.

Whats a trackpoint alpha??

sorry didn't read that right Yes my alphas are track point.

Set up a new division in Realspeed for Alpha 500 & set it to Trackpoint, you get a more accurate (read higher) reading.

You can then compare the two.

My understanding is Doppler does not work well with the Alphas & I seem to recall where it was recommended to use Trackpoint for Alphas only though.

Hmmmm, Trackpoint or doppler, I don't think either will help my Alphas!!

Hmmmm, Trackpoint or doppler, I don't think either will help my Alphas!!

Just gotta learn the high speed rig flip and water start scotty

Water starts are OK, get lots of practise with my alphas!

Good hour Stribo

Alpha in TP or Doppler, came up other day from Lao Shi. Nebbian indicated GT11's use TP but the GT31 use Doppler.

Scott, Unme both, re Alpha

What happens where I need both for Garmin & GT-31?

Can I download both?

In the mean time should I not use Trackpoint until I get the latest Realspeed, I have the latest GT-31 Firmware.

Good one Clare, getting better every week now

Smaller board faster times hey dad

Well done on cracking the 20 coala bear

Well done clare on pb,well  done Danny bloody excellent open water speed

well  done stribo,

Position are up for loc now, i'm a dnf

Well done steve on the race, you too darryl and Danny

Well done jesper, bad luck annika

Borgy great effort for driving up to watch

huge great effort to two people not in our team Paul S  (steve s brother)and Mattius for completeing the LOC on a tandaem board

Jesper, that's a big board in such rough water. If you did again, would you have gone for a smaller, easier board, or do you think you had it right?

Hi Chris

I thought I picked my best option on the day. But looking back at it now, the most efficient setup might have been around a 7.5-7.7 and a 100-110 liter board. I knew with the 122 and 8.1 that I would not be first to the first mark, but hoped to make it up on the deep downwind legs, with the bigger sail. I made up some distance, but not enough.  Next year

Just had a look at Jespers trackfile.  His 2 sec speed actaully goes for 11sec (10 second time is exactly the same)???  Its the same for his tracks today.  GPS dislpay speed was 32.6....  he's using an old Garmin unit, maybe its not set up right?

Hi Annika, this usually means that the garmin is set up with "Auto" trackpoints.  This should be changed to "2 second".  I don't know where this function lives in the menus though...

Well done jesper, Speeds maxed out . Can't find anyone whom can run through old rspeed

I'll email Mal w to see if he can get  a real two sec data.

Nebbs  let me know if you can't run his tracks on the replay or if invalid

Holy crap 3 of our team in the top 10 LOC that is awesome.

Fantastic runs to Jesper, Danny and Steve, commiserations to Annika who I think had gear failure.

Did Borgy get out on the water?

And Bigdog I hear that one of your sails came first in the Women's race?

Hi Bigdog, I haven't received Jesper's file yet.

Ledge I was on 7.0 rs racing evo2, 58 team edition F2, 30 mach 1 Choco. Should have taken the 68 (105 liters).  not enough  wind for the 85 liter board down wind.
Dani for Ledge was on 68 team edition, Choco fireblade 38 and I think 8.1 Severne.
Dani yesterday was on 6.5 severne 58 team edition and Choco 32 fireblade
Sailed today on RS racing evo2 6.2m 58 team edition and Choco 30 mach 1.

did borgy sail? allmost a full house! well done

Near on a full book, thats got to be worth something just with that well done to all, lads and ladets

Borgy did the honourable thing at Lano & ferried the sailors back to Ledge to get their cars, sacrificing a full house of posters.

We will pull it off next time

Wow that is impressive, and warms the cockles of my heart.  Fantastic to see so many numbers on the top of the screen 

Well done Team Southsiders!!

Great session guys. Full set of numbers nearly and PBs to boot! - Borgy looks conspicuous in absence. :)

Well done.
