LIGHT WIND COURSE RACE Boards WOW
Got myself a Light wind Course racing board. Lobster and I have been mucking about on it between elwood beach and Albert Park over the last few days around lunch time. If anybody saw us - we were as surprised as you to find ourselves going WAY upwind and absolutly flying in 8-12 knots on 10m switchy.

I did an off-the wind run from elwood to albert park in about 10 knots of wind on Wednesday at around 1pm...(we were walking backwards to keep the kite in the sky before I left) - By the time I'd gone about 500m I was keeping up with cars on beaconsfiled parade...I reakon I was doing 50-60 klicks!!!. I had that much apparent that I thought the wind must have picked up (Until I jibed/stacked and then found there was no wind and my kite fell out of the sky) - Thats the next challenge...

Tried it today strapless for practice in 15-20 (Too Much wind) - Rode a 7m kite but there was too much chop... Found out that I am totally crap at Jibing even without bindings. Practicing...

Anyway - Anyone else out there got one of these and or interested in getting into some course racing? Warwick at RPS has one I know, Dave and I, both got one this week, Gorgo? - Gorgo's mentioned Paul?

- wanna Race? We've got to be the first doing it here...My Mobile is 0428 122 288 - Happy to sms around when we get a suitable day between 8-15knots and have a crack .
