(machine translated in 2023) The first day of the Freestyle clinic of Niek vd Linde. Not really a lot of wind, but being able to practice for the spin run. At the end of the day, the wind was blowing enough to be able to plan with the 6.6 every now and then.

Board: Fanatic Viper L
Sail: North Natural 6.6 - North Viper Race 460cm - Arrows Weapon Xtreme 175-225
  (machine translated in 2023) My skate is a bit small to have to lift the sail often. So I borrowed a Viper from Niek, what a floating island. Makes everything a lot easier. Later the wind started to blow better and I was able to plan reasonably with the viper, so time to pick up my skate.
15:00 1.5 hour Wind: SW 10/14 kts
Board: Fanatic Skate - MFC Freestyle 32cm
Sail: North Natural 6.6 - North Viper Race 460cm - Arrows Weapon Xtreme 175-225
  (machine translated in 2023) Finally planing. Well finally that Spinloop a bet, first practiced the catapult a few times and then downwind chop-hopping, but the wind was often too little for that, so I didn't get further than 1 half attempt. I was also so tired that just surfing straight became difficult, let alone a spin run.
