Scored two pretty awesome sessions at Point Impossible over the weekend..
Huge swells on the west coast and plenty of wind

Posso's had some awesome swell, the outer reef breaking consistently mast + and holding & peeling all the way around the corner to the beach.. everyone was getting waves with 5-10 turns! Plenty of wipeouts and big swims.. with everyone ending up the river at some stage!!

Frustrating wind on sat W-NW very offshore and hard to get out. Sunday started off W-NW again but finally swung about 2pm and then ended up W-SW so a bit onshore but 40+ knots when it first hit...

couple of pics

Saturday - Hard to get out is an understatement! I only got out once and then soiled my wetsuit trying to get in

Not as quick as in 2009, but just beats Tony Wynhoven's "official " best 1x10 record from back then. Only difference this time I had 2 highly accurate gps's on instead of 1 and another type they don't accept for WR verification.

And check the damage pic, one of our guys had a brutal stack and face planted the rail of the board.......
