Woohoo, another full on 5 star session... Once again going for maximum speed most of the time in the flats between the waves and on the flat water in the lagoons up by the estuary.

Went with the 5m sail as it was meant to drop off, but it didn't so I spent the whole time really well powered up and on the edge of control. Lots of mad speed runs, but didn't manage to beat my record. Didn't quite get into 30 knots even, but it was pretty rough. It certainly felt fast and led to some of my best wipeouts ever. Spinning out at close to 30 knots is great fun!!... I love it! Had quite a few good crashes actually.

I did sail upwind out through the surf at one point and out the back there were some pretty gnarly waves, but in the dead onshore conditions and with so much power it was esy to avoid the nasty sections and sailing in amongst the big stuff was actually pretty easy.. It was quite relaxing in comparison to the mad speed runs as well.

Top session.
