Session details.<\/p>\n 3\/4 stroke for most of the session, dropping to half when the wind picked up. One day I will manage a full stroke and actually come to the front of the slide.<\/p>\n I ultimately decided to render the timelapse video, so here we have the entire session of around an hour and a quarter condensed down into just over 7 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a> <\/a> <\/a> <\/a> <\/a> <\/a> <\/a> <\/a> <\/a> <\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a> <\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n
