Hi Dave

Yesterday I sent a file from my session to you via email. Is there any chance you could download it like last week I will have to change the settings with you at some stage on the GT11 so that they download on the KA72 site.

Kindest Regards Russ

Awesome, well done(you had me worried when I saw 'over 32' on your post)! I'm not surprised you feel faster on your wave board, this is what one reviewer said earlier in the year when comparing the Global Wave to speed gear.

I own this board and was going faster that a fast mate on a starboard speed board on the weekend in maxed out 5.8 (naish grand prix 2010) conditions. This board is super fast and jumps like a dream. it is a high wind wet dream.

Buzzy, don't you get it, the guy was using a Naish Grand Prix, that's the difference, nothing to do with the board, I suggest you change your sponorship from Ezzy to Naish

Hi Buzzy

I am still to myself about this board, every time I use it gets better.
It is Super Fast, Jumps are Fantastic and get up and going early. Every now and then you can get lucky and find a board that just works better for you and your style of riding. I am sure others would try this board and find nothing that good to say about it, but for me, it works.

Cheers Russ

I was using the Naish 2010 Grand Prix 5.8 and it is smoking fast, I was actually having moments when I thought, I am the weakest link by far, not the board or sail. I will have to see if I can get 35 knots on this combo if the wind keeps up on the weekends.

Looking forward to having you back on the water mate.

Cheers Russ

Thats great inspiration!
This season the boys have been getting some speed,
Just shows you dont have to have the pure slalom or speed boards to record a decent speed.
Anyone with a fast tailed freestyle wave board coupled with a decent sail can get out there with their gps and get 30-40 knots.
Last year at Sandy Point there was speeds of 40knots on similar gear.
It sounds likme just having a gps will give you a buzz

I have a Naish waveboard too that seems pretty fast, it even gybes faster than me turning the sail, I can't keep up with it. Once I get a GPS it will be a good test.

Lot's of walking for you then young Ant for the next 36 days. I reckon Prue will be driven insane with you hanging out for a sail.
