Joined the crew at Little Maui from 9.30am, Pocket Wave 78 & 5.0m Manic.
Just as i launched it lulled a little, so by time finsihed moaning about
that, it filled in and had a couple 2-3 hours perfectly powered to
slightly over powered. Wicked ramps to go for some decent height jumps
Need for food & drink coincided with feeling totally overpowered, about
same time TimBass went through his sail, so back to base, de-rig & head up
to Jury's for an afternoon session.
BUT .... decided Jury's was too kite-infested for my liking and had got a
call from VFW Mark who was on his 5.7m at Pevensey in lovely sunshine and
there were nice waves there. As I was taking a break to re-fuel I opted to
take it while driving to Pevensey.
Git there to find Mark was cream crackered and packing up. Lee was giving
up after being maxxed on his 6m. Couple other guys out on 5.0-5.8m's so
went for 5.6m Remedy on the 3S 97 for a couple hours, joined by Gutted who
was still looking a little jaded from a heavy night out. Bit overpowered on
the 5.6m in the end, Gutted on his 5.0m came in for application of more
downhaul ... pretty good sail that 5.6m Remedy, and having a bit extra
power meant I could aim higher off the ramps.
Good to catch up with everyone (robster rrd, RichC, TimBass, Alan, Michael,
Stu Ord-Hume (still loopy), Chris, VFW Mark, Gutted ... and the rest of the
guys ... and it was nice to do a proper full day two venue session for a
change.. .. I ache from smiling
