Queens it is

He Hee. Queen's went off!

Went for a quick sail at manly, wasn't too bad was a bit on the light side with most people on big race sails.

Made a few quick clips from gopro footage, camera was aimed a bit high. Testing different bitrates to see how big the files will be vs quality. Seems to be a bit of lag in the vids once uploaded to youtube, not sure why, the raw files seem to be fine.

sure did, everyone was getting stuck in for sure. Needed a good session to blow away the cobwebs

Better pack the speed kit

Manly looks like a great place to sail - thanks for the vids Swoosh.

You should do a video of you guys carrying your gear down the rock wall. One of the most impressive windsurfing stunts around.

The Gopro vids look good Swoosh. Next time I want to see one without the crashes edited out ... um, maybe not.

haha not too many crashes. someone did catapult right behind me thou, i copped the tip of the mast to my forearm, corked it good. also i wanted to keep the vid G rated, too much swearing in the crash scenes


i was going to include a part on the rock stairs, but this vid was mainly just to check all the technical stuff works hehe, will show the stairs when i get around to making a proper video.

Trick is to make sure you always crash behind someone with a camera

Sorry about the forearm Swoosh, I was aiming for the bull shark that was stalking you.

You should put a bit of on the spot commentary on them. Eg. "yes folks we're coming up for a port jibe now, ooo there we go, ally op hey presto oh yeah, and there we go back towards shore again."good stuff.
