Finally landed 4 unhooked raleys in a row. Magnificent. Feels like I've been on that mission for a long long time. Also tried lots of variations on jumped kiteloops
Poor James got to Mt Martha but had forgotten his harness! Had a fun session on the nugget, got pretty powered, tried all the variations of gybing and got heaps better. My favourite is the backroll kiteloop to toeside gybe, cause it is easy and gives you a tonne of power coming out.
Headed out with James for the first kite of the daylight savings season. And what a cracker. What looked to be a little over 20 knots soon turned out to be quite a bit more. We put kites up and I was somewhat surprised that James headed straight downwind. Once I was on the water it was clear that the wind was quite a bit stronger than we thought. Got some massive massive air, thought about pulling a loop coming down but worried I would end up in the dunes. After 30 mins it got to the point where I could barely hold the kite down. James pulled safety so we put kites down happy to have got through the session.
