Go Pro footage of my brown pants sail at Myall lakes last weekend.
Warning - swearing
Sorry I dropped a few F bombs..
I'm still getting used to the go pro and I had the wrong option so there is a fair bit of wind noise but if you want to hear me you'll need to have the volume on.



I'd just done a survival run on the 111ltre and 6.6m. The wind was side offshore so it was hard to gauge how strong it was. I got over the other side and unhooked and the whole lot got ripped out of my hands ,thrown downwind and I had to swim for it.
The slalom starters were waiting over there so lucky I was downwind of them!
I managed to get back in one piece by going into gorilla mode and staying upwind..
Once back I figured the smaller kit would be a better fit.
Unfortunately it had picked up again and a 4m with the 68ltre waveboard would have been a better match.
Another brown pants sail. Lucky I didn't go out again as it died top 15-20kts and I would have been stuck out there..
I haven't been well so I was planning on a relaxed sail with a stop at each end to rest.. yeah right..
I haven't sailed the falcon in strongwinds and chop for over a year and I've never used a pointer on it before. I usually use a weedy to settle it down in the chop.. Well the fin worked well although boy that thing can move!
