Speed Week 2011 Video

Speed Week 2011 - Sandy Point, Victoria, Australia. Six days of buggying on a really nice beach - about 6km from setup out to the point, then 14km back to Waratah Bay (if there's not too many people on the beach!). We fluked on shore winds for the entire event and only missed one low tide due to rain. Had a blast!

Nice video, I loved the handheld, made for great camera angles. Was that a Method on a turbo bar you were flying, or was it a Flow (I always get them mixed up) ? I noticed an absence of a trim line.

Yep, that was the 4m Method. The brake trimmers are on the bar ends - fiddly to adjust but I can't think of a better way....
