A really fun bump and jump session at Green point in a perfect Melbourne winter northerly. The sun was even out most of the time!! Didn't have a long enough leave pass to go to Rye for a speed session, so just on wave gear. It was actually good to totally forget about the speed stuff and just go for a fun sail in the chop.

Haven't speedsailed at Rye before but it sure is a hell of a thrill! One minute its flattish, the next it's one foot high lumps. Even a few jumps on port tack. Pity it wasn't 30knots as forecast but I reckon by the time I had packed up it was getting there. Well done team!

First time sailing at Rye and what a great spot! A few of the other pit crew there plus a heap of other windsurfers. Wind maybe 20-25 knots and perhaps up to 30 by 4pm or so when I was too shagged to sail any more. Great to have the loooong runs weaving around the banks. Managed not to hit any but did go over the handlebars once after flying off a wave at speed on a broad reach   I even managed to pull off a few slightly smoother gybes! Started to get a bit overpowered on my 5.2 by the end.

At Rye, good turn out with the rest of the crew.  Wind did not really get up till later in the arvo when I'd had enough of trying to hold the Kode112/Wave fin in a straight line all day. Nice to see PBs guys coming out of the Rye chop...
