nebbian (8209km): East Perth, iSo 94, Ezzy 5.2, MFC weedy 29 Got there well before dawn and had a bit of a sniff, the wind looked good so rigged up in the dark to the admiring glances of several joggers (I mean who would jog at that hour of the morning? Bet they were thinking the same thing about me) Bobbled out towards the wind line when... *click* A paparazzi boat had snuck up behind me to take my photo. The flash was very bright, and the click was audible. Not sure what was going on I kept going, and... *click* Another flash lit up the bay. I was starting to get a bit nervous now so turned around and headed in. I've no idea why the lightning made that clicking noise, but then again I don't understand the dynamics of water, carbon masts and very high voltage. Sat around on shore for a while watching the show, before turning caution to the winds and having just one planing run... To the victor go the spoils! | ||||||||||||||||||
JJ (6448km): Melville Beach, WA, AU Lots of fun, gusty and choppy but plenty of wind in the gusts. It was actually quite warm. Tried to find some flat water by heading upwind but no luck. Sailed with Scarrgo and when packing up Mark and Obelix turned up. Doesn't anybody work ? Isonic 76, 5.3 Severne Gator, C3 Sting 28 - think I'd like to try the Venom 28 (anyone selling?) - I find the Sting a bit tempermental downwind. | ||||||||||||||||||
Obelix (1397km): Melville. 115L 6m then 5.2m. The first time on a sail under 6mand it felt very different. Took me awhile to figure out how to hang onto the wave sail. The whole gang was there. Thanks to the captain for the tips on the setup. It was nice to meet JJ and Scargo. JJ congratulations on the PB. | ||||||||||||||||||
Windxtasy (2881km): Melville Beach, WA, AU 85L Sonic, 4.9 Koncept, 28 vector Almost too embarrassed to post these figures but I need to get on the scoreboard for July. A session where I never felt comfortable at all. At times overpowered with 4.9 but things just never felt right. If I had tried that waveboard today I would have thought it was rubbish, though maybe it would have been better? I felt like a newbie. Footstraps felt too far back, board kept going sideways when waterstarting. Can't quite work out why. Lack of fitness? Out of practice? Unused to such a small sail? All of the above, but something else too. The ocean like chop didn't help. At least it was a good work out. Great to be part of the Pinnaroos team reunion at Lucky Bay. It was lovely to see you all again. Sorry I missed you, JJ, and congrats on the PB. No mean feat in those conditions today. | ||||||||||||||||||
lao shi (27489km): Hard day at the office with a great team turn out. Awesome to be on the 5.7! All day! Switched between nonose and S100. Fastest peak on nonose (just). Impressed again by the handling of the Sonic 32GW combo. Mile was a real leg burner. | ||||||||||||||||||
Damo (1699km): Melville Beach, WA, AU F2 SX Small,6.7mtr O.D. 34 MFC Weedie Well I found out the hard way that there wasn't enough litres in the board today to haul my carcass,it made for an interesting and very short session. Should have packed a bigger board Good to see and catch up with alot of the crew out @ Melville | ||||||||||||||||||
Snake (13281km): Melville for a quick one, missed the best of it so called it a day (very) early Sonic 85, Ram 5.4, Goldwing 30 | ||||||||||||||||||
scarrgo (6801km): struggled a bit to put these rusults together tonight i have a feeling that some of them are slightly out cause my file is in 3 peices thanks to the long day at the office will have another go at it later not very pleased with most of the numbers here though was hoping for a better 2sec, 5x10 and hour was very strange that no matter what i did i could only bearly make 30 the only thing i can think of to boost my speed that i didn't try was running deep downwind through the monster chop in those massive sqauls, didn't really have the guts well i'm stuck at home for the next few days so i'm sure there will be wind for everyone EDIT: second try worked out how to combine the files not much difference really 5.0 koncept, 76 isonic, 26 jp sp, 28 jp sl, 6kg of weight wasn't impressed with the speeds i was getting with my 26 so swapped over to the 28 not much difference less than 0.1 of a knot on the display in the end little bit more comfortable perhaps i should have taken the hint and gone right up to the 30 was suprised i was able to crack the 100k's with the extra weight today |
