F2 Speedchallenge Strand Horst. There was a good forecast for speed, but when I arrived at 11:30 there was no wind at all. But it soon started to blow a lot and later even very hard. Unfortunately, it took too long to get the GPSs working so I couldn't sail with them. It's a reasonable way to speed it up again.

No wind, but still wanted to do something. And to not have to grab my own freestyle stuff but to test a Set. Wind picked up so I started rigging. |

Set ran well, fast, ran well height. I had a lot of control. But still went to the side to try a smaller fin. |

The North Shore 36cm gives much less grip, slightly spin-out. But seems to be running faster. But that may also have been due to the wind. 6.8 even got big so the Thommen just caught. |

What a difference in speed. The Thommen is really much faster. Planting and walking at height are a lot less. But the speed is clearly a few km higher. Wind was actually getting too much and I would have liked to have tested my T-Force 5.9. But unfortunately no more time. Had to drive away at 16:30. |
