(machine translated in 2023) Today less wind is predicted than yesterday. On arrival little wind so first spend an hour sanding fins. Then the 6.6 but rigged, didn't make sense in my 8.1

12:00 2.5 hour Wind: W/SW 13/16 kts
Board: Fanatic Skate - MFC Freestyle 32cm
Sail: North Natural 6.6 - Fiberspar 4200 QT 460cm - Arrows Weapon Xtreme 175-225
  (machine translated in 2023) With the 6.6 it sometimes went just and other times it was trimmed with the 6.6 at max but just doable. After a while the wind completely subsided and I went to grab my 8.1.
14:30 0.75 hour Wind: W/SW 12/15 kts
Board: Fanatic Bee 124 Ltd - Gsport CR-10 40cm
Sail: Arrows Duell 8.1 - Arrows Lance55 490cm - Arrows Ultimate Race 190-240
  (machine translated in 2023) Wind was slumping but the gusts were still strong. So I left with the 40cm Curtis and trimmed the Duell on or over max. Went well, but between the gusts I could hardly walk or no height.
15:15 0.75 hour Wind: W/SW 12/14 kts
Board: Fanatic Bee 124 Ltd - Select Eagle L 43cm
Sail: Arrows Duell 8.1 - Arrows Lance55 490cm - Arrows Ultimate Race 190-240
  (machine translated in 2023) With the Eagle 43cm a lot more speed. Sail a little less trimmed and now height walking was also much better. Pressure from the Eagle wasn't too bad now, no sense of being knocked over all the time.
