UKWA event at Christchurch. Wind started of light but picked up later on but only managed to get 2 races in before i hurt my back so missed all the racing on Sunday. Couldn't get any decent speeds on the longboard as the swell was messed up with chop so the nose of the Phantom kept catching in the swell when going off the wind. It felt like the board wanted to accelerate and then the next second the nose would catch and the board would slow down, very frustating

Gear Used - Starboard Phantom 380 Race, 9.5m Tushingham XR Race, 48cm Deboichet R19
