Great at Lake Clearwater but wind didn't really play ball at Lake Ohau but good to explore what could be a great speed spot in the right conditions. 300k from Chch

Thanks guys,
you're right Izaak, great NM spot at Lake Ohau, 4km across at top of lake. Bit too short at Clearwater

thanks guys,
Ohau was about 10 degrees water temp straight from the glacier Bob!!!!... but 30 degrees above water!!!
Kato, I had to yell at the kiter to let him know I was there, they just don't look when they suddenly change direction which is..... somewhat hazardous up on the speed course....

I can't believe you sail along that fast with your feet out of the rear straps, no wonder you wear a helmet

Cool vid, as yes the music worked really well.

Hi Mineral,
I'll let you know, could be a bigger team next time...
On Clearwater at the start I was on my CA SP50, 7.0 Overdrive and 23 Slingshot, Richard was on an AHD special speed board and 6.2 NP RS Slalom, we had about 25-30knots of wind
Slalom gear at Ohau as not much wind SL58 36 Venom 7.0 Overdrive and SL 70.
Should have stayed at Clearwater they had a ditto day, much more speed potential at Ohau though so good to explore anyway..
