If the boss didn't know where to find me I'd almost consider a sickie tomoz.

And you weren't the only one to pike beefarmer, quite a few pulled up on the beach at sepos and didn't even get out of their car. They must have thought I was a dead set lunatic

solid 40knots on the outer reef, some mental channel busters rolling through, tucked in deep for a few but too much wind too get slotted, could have gone very wrong out there, thankfully it didn't didn't think strapless was possible in 40!

On another note, 5m Best Cabo, very stable fully depowered, still responsive through turns, drifts back nicely in the higher end of the windrange

Nothing drifts in 40 knots, it gets sucked.

Another thumbs up for the Best Cabo, 2 days on the V2 6m, although it was only 30 knots today, this kite rocks!! If you like your waves you have to test ride these.

Disappointing today, went down for a late session after work and found 30 knots on the 7m just wasn't enough to have fun and I was too lazy to swap over to the 9m. Not to worry, I'm still buzzing from yesterday
