Ok. This one is the same few runs. Leave the sound off unless you want to hear the yeehaas! at approx 4.20mins..If you want fast forward it to the end 5.16 & freeze it to see the expression on my face as I fall off the back in the gybe..It looked much better in a bigger version on Tv my partner loved it & got me to rerun it a few times..
Ill put a photo taken of me falling off that gybe under neath

Fantastic!! Committed fully into the gybe in the photo
and leaning into the turn .
Love the second half of vid with
harness line flapping in the wind. Quite cool.
Put this video into the short
film competition thingy.
Need to lose the gloves

Nah need the gloves..I forgot to mention it starts with one of my light wind waterstarts where I crawl onto the board & 'sit ' on it until I get enough wind to stand up..I don't often do that so it was luck that I got it on tape although it's hard to see on the video.Anyone else do that?
Stop it at 5.17 mins for a laugh! The look on my face is priceless! I think I stuffed the gybe as I was standing too upright.I now try & crouch realy low & stay that way & it seems to work..Pity I muffed the gybe as all good until then..

Nice vid!

gggggrrrrrrrrrrrr

I knew you'd hate it..It was shorter and all the other tack was edited out before but I wanted the stack at the end left on and Tim mustn't be able to cut bits out of the middle so now it's a bit long..That's what fast forward is for!

You need lean further forwards as well with your gybe. This will help you stay on the plane around the gybe and make it easier to grab the sail

Great vid Sue. I'm tempted to fire up iMovie and make a clip of my sailing adventure on Port Stephens late January. A fair bit of footage was recorded and it's a pretty spot.
