“I made it through the first round today. Very happy. In the end it was pretty easy as 5th and 6th both crashed, but I had it in the bag anyway. Scariest moment was when I realised I had it under control coming into the penultimate gybe. I was so nervous and so nearly catapulted coming out the gybe! Just about held it together. Next target is the losers final, but I think its going to be very hard to get through the quarters!”
