    Daytrip holiday from work with Tweezer to Pipers. Looked very light on first glimpses from the highway. Looked very light on arrival. Rigged big and it was very light. Mark unfortunately had a brain fart and packed the 3.5 not the 5.2 (at least it had a "5" in it !) I blew the doors off tweezer from the start as he was basically at a standstill. Continued further afield to check out the conditions all the while keeping an eye on tweezer pumping like a madman and quickly receding downwind and outside. At some point it's a possible call for help? He did make it back to the beach eventually and others began to arrive for him to mooch a 5m, yay! Dan, Ang, Paul, Smartang(Steve), Mike the Junky all repping the Team Wing, with Markus(Nils) and Mike(?) team windfoil in attendance. Got to fly and poodle around so overall it was worth the trip!
