Gotten himmel that is one fast gybe...
Hey Andrew, All that Gybe training I gave you on xmas eve has finally paid off
Well done mate way out of my league!!!!!!
well done
The worst thing is that it doesn't look like any of my vast crew of team mates got out and recorded any sessions! 
awesome stuff with a great incoming speed of 30kn+ at fairly square to the wind as well
interesting looking at the degree change from second to second with the slowest part of the gybe coinciding with the biggest change of direction aprox 46deg...just a little bit smoother next time
Yes truly awesome Andrew, what was the distance???
I suspect you got a lot closer to the 500m with this one, as there's no speed drop off at either end.
righto! decrep i think we need to start getting serious about this alpha thingy and attack this scientifically and set up some bits of pvc pipe at hardies at some strategic spots to help gauge this beast proper[}:)]
what do you think?
Snides, It would be nice to have a 250m gauge of some sort and a 50m gate, just guessing each time must be slowing us down! Think it's the only way to work out the best strategy.
Hardie I'm not sure where your gybe marker is, you were very careful not to let me into that secret!!!! But can we use one of the existing rock markers as one side of the gate, so as not to proliferate our pipes too much
I would use something with a bit more give, like a buoy or even PVC, but a rock!
Hardie and I have a secret way of marking the buoy so that only we can see it
Pity it hasn't helped my alphas though 
Seriously we've got plans to make it more visible... Shhh!
I would use something with a bit more give, like a buoy or even PVC, but a rock!
