I didn't see your message.I saw 2 guys at Marmong - were you one?
I got out at Valentine - smoking..about 10 guys there as I left..20 -30kts 25-30 a lot.Out of control with a 78ltre + 3.8m sail..

Bad stacks. The wind got under my 95ltre board and flipped it into a downwind jump that catapulted me thigh first onto the deck..argh...I can hardly walk..+ 3 catapults ( & I rarely catapult) and a twisted ankle..Good though.Times like this I wish I weighed 90kgs rather than 63..

Will post pics when they are edited..ow...

Cripes I reckon! Someone else was out with an older style board but at least they had a backup jetski support!
Out of action for a while with injuries.I can hardly walk + underside of neck killing me from the whiplash catapults.I'm keen to get the photos edited. Unfortunately when we were taking photos there was only myself and one other out.
