30+ knots and some mast high close outs...

The wind has been good again this week, but Monday was particularly nuts. Ended up down at Woolamai which is a very open beach on Phillip Island, when we got there it looked really fun - about 25 knots and logo high sets. It was good for a while then the wind and waves stepped it up a notch after about half an hour. It just ended up being a survival session combined with lots of swimming! Super maxed out on my 4.2 to the point of not being able to bottom turn. Got smashed quite a few times and lost my gear repeatedly! Good fun...

Few screen shots of Jon and I - Thanks to Rob for coming down.






Before we headed home we had a look at this nice reef break that is high on my list of places to sail next.
