Ed got some good shots of Shiny briefly upright and twin wiring down wind. It was a good telephoto lens but probably not good enough to catch the expressions of fear on Todd and my faces.

Note the Clements water aversion. The crew however loved a quick dip and refreshing swim. Get those shoulders back Todd!

I think the person who designed this foiling system may have gone slightly too far ;)

The wand would almost certainly have to be telescopic or multi section or it would be a ***** to tow.

I like the idea Paul fully foiling on one foil!

Don't think I'll be fully foiling but think there is potential to carry more weight on one than I am now

Video from the nationals. Will be posted properly when I find the keys to the Cherub You-Tube site (and alter the credits to include Mr Gruitt).

I think Born Slippy needs to enable viewing on mobile devices for the video.  I can view it on my laptop but not on my phone....
