Joe O In the club

Joe OLeary on an 8.0 and formula board down at Tybee Island blew pass the 30 mph mark to join the 30 MPH CLUB. Notice his speed dropped down after setting his new record as he switched to an easier riding board.

Congrats to Joe.

Hatteras works. I did almost 33 there a long time ago on a wave sail. You have to get the right combo of wind and flat water pretty much like anywhere else, though.

I'm sure you know it but getting something much above 30 is a lot harder than it seems. Go way off the wind with as small a fin and big a sail as you dare.
