22 November 2016: Sunny November morning
Wednesday 23 November 2016
(machine translated in 2018) Prediction: this morning was still wind, to hour or 1, then quickly decreasing. So I was early in Zeeland. Only a single surfer at Kabbelaarsbank. Few hours tested many different fin configurations under JP FSW 84 Pro 4.7 with the Ice. I start to feel reasonably at which fins good and which work less. Which fins for which and when work well. Very happy with the extra options under the JP FSW 84 Pro. It was delicious sunny. [Read...]

Friday 18 November 2016
(machine translated in 2018) Finally the converted 84 Freestyle Wave Pro with Thrusters test. Few hours with the Ice block dam on the dangers arising from the 84 5.3 FSW. Wind direction to southern for the lowdown. Number of different setups tried. Very fun and educational. It was less hot than yesterday, but have certainly not had cold. Wind was good, unfortunately he fell away quickly. [Read...]
16 November 2016: Sunny November afternoon: Set was just a bit too small
Thursday 17 November 2016
(machine translated in 2018) Few hours at Natural High dangers, very quiet, but just light winds. With the Ice 5.3 on the Syncro 103 dangers. Too many floated around, difficulty with altitude. The weather was good, had better deal with the 6.6. But nice to get on the water. [Read...]
06 November 2016: rainy Sunday morning, almost swimming
Tuesday 08 November 2016
(machine translated in 2018) On the Grevelingendam turned out to be the the WSW at 5 mph, always tricky. So opted for a slightly larger set. isonic 101 with the Trans-Am 6.6, only bought to see if a better fit than the more free race 6.6 me pure freeride Natural. Unfortunately with not paying attention with rig up: in the middle of the Grevelingen: pop, sailing slack. First reaction: cleaner string broken, torn sail? No, top put out through the top of the mast trunk! Oops. Should bother surfing back to the side, there turned out to be there. Again rigging and go. Not the best day, cold, many rain, first hour was the best. [Read...]

16 September 2016: Afternoon Super Lightwind
Saterday 17 September 2016
(machine translated in 2018) Late afternoon just enough wind to sail. Started with the iSonic 117 and my just purchased Warp 8.0, but there turned out to be the wind actually too minimal for. Nice moment to my JP Super 90 Lightwind give it a go try: S-Type 9.5. What is that thing big and especially wide in the back, who has a need, even the 70 cm long fin works really still under. It was a beautiful afternoon to light again to test stuff. [Read...]

Even when I was full-power with the sailing was Juanfer 5.9 (10 kg lighter) still on the 117 with the 7.3: "I'm fine, it is narrower then the 9.5 I'm used to." Was a very fun day, was very cozy with Juanfer. Class, good weather. [Read...]

07 August 2016: Gusty afternoon surfing with a lot of friends
Monday 08 August 2016
(machine translated in 2018) We had agreed to go surfing and surf with friends after a BBQ. It was very busy on the Kabbelaarsbank. Started with the iSonic 101 with Natural 6.6 and S10 37 cm, which was often far too great. But wind was very gusty, and behind the port it was worse. Then the Syncro with Ice 5.3 getting caught. Yet but wise the extra volume 5.3, seemed like a good idea with this gusty wind. Was delicious, easy. It was not the best surfing day of the year, before that it was the wind way too gusty. [Read...]

Wind similar, so again for the same set of chosen: JP Freestyle Wave 84 with 5.3 Ice but now with the Select Wave Warrior 24 cm. Wind was on the water less, giving you more west parallel to the side and so also compared to the waves. Few very beautiful waves know. 3 a 4 hits, even a aerial-of-the-lip done. Was pretty quickly tired, not crazy to yesterday. Was a nice afternoon, plenty of sunshine, fairly constant breeze, there were nice wavy. [Read...]

Wind was in the beginning very gusty and woozy, with the cold come better wind. The chop was firm and it was set too large, in the Bay class for a while. Post something to fanatic dangers, I would still take it easy to do. [Read...]
