Day 1 to 3 !

The first 3 days have been simply awesome.......

Our intrepid team were greeted by the windy Island with force 8 winds and in Tris's ( OTC owner) " mate, these are the biggest waves we've seen in 3 years"........UUHH!!!

Day 1 - Our team were on between 3.5mtr ( Rob, Pria) to 4.7mtr ( fat lardies like me and Steve!) and we all were a little scared at just how BIG the swell was. 1/2 mast high in the bay to MAST HIGH swell out beyond the bay. You just hung on, lined up the next wave coming....... then went skybound for about 2 seconds!!

Day 2 - Even bloody bigger waves!!. Or team were getting to grips with the conditions and fear was starting to turn to adrenaline. Pria, bless her heart, was persevering with just trying to get through the half mast high shore break!!... and she made it through in the afternoon!! - WELL DONE!!

Day 3 - Force 6, which by now seemed easy so all our riders were ripping it up on 5.3mtrs - 6.5mtr sails. Charlie had chosen to go with his waist harness, Keith, Rob and Mark were happily screaming in the bay............. and I got pissed on pink champagne with Sara. Woke up at 7.30pm with a raging headache so went and joined the team for drinks then a Chinese.
