2022 01 03 - Downwinder- Ricketts to Brighton

 Spent close to an hour at Ricketts - saw rich and job from a distance - before heading off with Stu, Mike and James on a downwinder to Brighton.  Very consistent wind, heaps of big jumps.  Not really landing forward rotations well today, not aggressive enough coming out with the leading hand.
