Philip Walker and Guy Fillmore’s Campaign at the 29er World Championships in San Francisco

 Hi Richard
Some photo's of today. The first one (314) is of us going upwind lying about
5th. We then caught it up to 2nd by the time we rounded the mark and then
lost it back down to 5th again by making a questionable shit move and gybing into a lull!!
The second race we had a shit start and got a 15th!! Then it picked up loads
(30+ knots) and racing was abandoned and one boat broke their mast.  Both the
photos are from the first race.
Therefore we are in the silver fleet which is not too good but our coach
(Harvey or Harves as we call him) says that he wants us to win the silver
fleet!! (no pressure then!!)
Bye
Phil
