(machine translated in 2023) I had to pick up Mijke around 17:00 in rotterdam, so started very early. Wind was good, with the temperature fresh again. It was also very busy because of the Dutch Championships.

09:45 0.25 hour Wind: W/NW
Board: Mistral Naish Hawaii 8'5" - Pro-Am SideShore 24cm
Sail: North Instinct 5.3 - North Viper 75 430cm - North Progression Comp A+
  (machine translated in 2023) Strong wind so with the Naish and 5.3 on the water, wind would drop later so I grabbed my smallest boom so that I could later rig my 5.9 with my 170 boom. Breeze was actually just too weak for this set. So off to the side for my Skate
10:00 2 hour Wind: W/NW
Board: Fanatic Skate 111 - Fanatic Freestyle 27cm
Sail: North Instinct 5.3 - North Viper 75 430cm - North Progression Comp A+
  (machine translated in 2023) Sail on minimum trim and with the Skate it went great. Even when the wind picked up again, the Skate did very well. Didn't expect the Skate to sail so well with a 5.3. Delicious. Been jumping and playing.
12:00 1.5 hour Wind: W/NW
Board: Mistral Naish Hawaii 8'5" - Pro-Am SideShore 24cm
Sail: North Instinct 5.3 - North Viper 75 430cm - North Progression Comp A+
  (machine translated in 2023) Wind was already so strong that I grabbed my Naish again... Went very well. Wind also remained fairly constant. Only later did the wind drop again so back to the Skate.
13:30 1 hour Wind: W/NW
Board: Fanatic Skate 111 - Fanatic Freestyle 27cm
Sail: North Instinct 5.3 - North Viper 75 430cm - North Progression Comp A+
  (machine translated in 2023) Wind was less again so but again with the Skate. The Fanatic fin does very well with the 5.3. New truck tried and learned: Rail-Grab.. Cool!
14:30 0.5 hour Wind: W/NW
Board: Mistral Naish Hawaii 8'5" - Pro-Am SideShore 24cm
Sail: North Instinct 5.3 - North Viper 75 430cm - North Progression Comp A+
  (machine translated in 2023) Back on the water with the Naish. Went very well at first, but had to be very spacious to get back on the side. Wind slumped again. Had to stop anyway. So no more catching the Skate.
