| Riks team rider Rob who has been based at Brandon Bay in Ireland since the mid-90's. He recently sent these pictures and a video clip of some seriously windy conditions that we thought you may like to see. |

| OK, south west Ireland and parts of Scotland see these conditions quite often...that said, 2.4m weather is something out of the ordinary. In Rob's words..."these are the windiest conditions that i have sailed in apart from one Christmas Day about four years ago". |
|
 |
| Rob's smallest sail is the NP Combat 3.3 - previously the Core 3.3m sails have seen some pretty wild action and also a 1992 Raf Cam Hurricane 2.5m back on that wild Christmas day described above. |
|
 |
| This time around though it was time for something new - a first run out for a 2.4m sail built by himself in his repair loft. Not wanting to risk everything, Rob decided to sail at the safely sheltered Scraggane bay...i'll leave the rest to the pictures and movies here... |
