lechenault inlet, NNW 18-20knts

F2 63(95L), RSS MK3 7.8m then RSR 7.2m, 34FO weedster

Dawn raid at my local. I have been chomping at the bit to get out on my new board. Rigged at 5.45am as i had family stuff to do today.

Started on the 7.8M rss, I'm really not happy with  this sail (I am gunna sell it and get a RSR). I cant tune it or even get my harness lines in the right place. It seams to be too soft and sluggish. Did a few runs on it and came in and rigged the 7.2m RSR.

That was heaps better.The new Flying Objects weedy feels really nice and slippery. Its nice to be able to get a decent weedy off the shelf for change.

Oh well better start packing as the family is off to Rotto for a week. Enjoy the wind while i'm away boys.

JP Slalom 134 Gaastra GTX 7m JP Weed 36  Just nice to be back on the water about 15kts but gusty.  So much for all the bullshit I was spinning to the Eastern Staters about how good and consistent the winds are in WA its just as shit here as everywhere else atm.

Nice sesh there Ben, looks like the early was the go!

I picked up a 34 FO weedster on Thursday, nice to hear you like it.  Between the FO's and new Choco speed weedies looks like we're finally get some good weedfins to choose from. Cool
