14 out for most of the time. Loops everywhere. Some classics by spaceman Houston. Surprised the space ship didn't get damaged on some of the landings.

Great shots! Look at all those spinners!

Relic, did you forget your booties or do the photos just make it LOOK like it was ffffffffffffffffreezing? We had an apparent temperature of 2 yesterday, and I am pretty sure yours can't have been much higher.

Ant showing the presence of mind to wave at the camera in the last of his sequence - nice.

Air and water temp pretty good so far on the Northwesters this Autum/winter .Even the days after a cold snowy southwester when it blows from the NW it has managed 15c like yesterday. The water while not tropical has stayed a degree or two warmer which is a lot more pleasant to sail at 12c than 10c in the old days . As long as gloves are not required I am out there A special thanks to global warming

Nope, didn't forget booties. I'll only wear them if there's a risk of frostbite! I was too hot in the R3. Had to fill it up with cold water at one point.

Yep, and I thought that G4K half way around, looking for the impact, was a good one, and also the look of sheer determination on Relic's face in the 'selfie'.

Awesome shots Relic. It is great you take the time, I know everyone appreciates it. Far out Carlton has been delivering lately hey. Last two sails have been the best I've had it.

Although I'm "Cured" from any professional media. I still get satisfaction as an amateur. Particularly if it's appreciated!! Grabbing the camera is a good excuse to have a rest. I've got a few bits of wear and tear.
I hope the images help promote the sport in Tasmania too.

I love a photo of myself swilling on the Jack Daniels, and also love a photo of myself sailing on my sailboard.
Everybody loves a photo of themselves doing action sports ,it makes you feel good and gets you so stoked for the next session, the more camera's ,the better. It can also prompt the punters to do some thing out of the ordinary ,like loops or aerials,or jumps,or speed, although speed is hard to capture.
Paul you always take time out to take a photo , if its a dorans bump and jump or Carlton jump and ride, we love it,.
Keep up the good work . And I'm sure the photo privileges you have taken will be reimbursed by most, lettuce man does a good job ,and others as well .
