Robby Swift K-89 reports:—————————————
“This was the winter where I sailed Jaws more than any other winter I can remember on Maui. I think we had 5 really good XXL sessions up there and this was the final one.
It was great to sail there so many times to really get a chance to get the gear dialed in well and feel confident that I was getting to know the lineup better than ever before.
This however, gave me a little too much confidence and after about an hour, I had one of the worst wipeouts of my life, getting sucked over the falls on my upside-down board and then getting stuck in the boom. I was physically OK though and it was so much fun though that I re-rigged a smaller sail and got straight back out there.
Here is my Jaws video which is also featuring sequences of Morgan Noireaux HI-101 and Max Schettewi USA-25.
Video links: YOUTUBE and / or on VIMEO.
