Mean while.......Back home......could only manage about 4hours of light gusty Goats today, had to come in for a Turkey in the end!
Injury Report....Sail Latte: bruised shoulder from crashing into rig. Houston: Corked thigh. Relic; tweaked "abused at younger age" knee ligament After trying to jump too high on non favoured tack.
All back on the water within minutes after ice packs and duck tape strapping.
Not a bad day in the office and thanks to Two Dads alias Andrew the team doctor/physio/pshycologist/ man whore/very nice young lad who iced us, rubbed us and got us back in the water in no time
Glad you guys finally got some decent wind. Yer Coro's is jump city, straight up the face and big air time.
Turned it on today some 'locals' turned up and Ben Severn managed a sail at sunset before turning up at Corro's to land some perfect mast and 1/2 back loops . S/SE wind opened up some interesting wave riding on the new
swell
According to the photo evidence, Jez and Houston spent all day practicing gybes
Haha nah condition were even better yesterday with 20+ knots again but was 3/4 mast high, awesome jumping and down the line sailing for another 5 hours great fun sailing with some severne guys, including ben.. Oh and the euro girls time to head north
Geraldton leads the way in new lightweight equipment of the future. So dangerous Tasmanians are the only ones with enough courage to take the risk of serious injury. Just a stroke of luck our team was on hand to take up the challenge.
Wow looks just like home, board shorts, rashies, aqua warm water. Actually the only thing similar is white caps and we've had more of those lately. And our photo backdrop is Dorans with snow on Mt Wellington.
Gnaraloo was pretty neat, head to 3/4 mast on 4.7m, sorry Buzzy don't really want to rub it in.............yeah right
.............Andrew alias Two Dads ( need to ask him how he scored that nick name) could barely water start, couldn't gibe but went out and scored his first head high wave down the line......now he's pumping
Only real issue here is the heat, I can't cope with 28 degrees looking forward to getting back to the snow
Another day at Corro's in 21degree water and 20 Knot wind and euro ladies sailing as well as the blokes
