A very long day of surfing. With O in the wind very gusty. But if you adjust to that, you can enjoy 25 degrees and a clear blue sky. A lot of hours of danger, too many, the next day a lot of trouble with my back.

Set ran nicely, the 41cm gives just enough lift. In the gusts sometimes really against overpowered while in the dips completely stand still. Water was not super flat, but it was easy to sail with the HTS. The 6.8 was often at its max in the gusts, time to go to the side to give the Skate a try. |

Delicious. In the gusts enough wind, and planting with the Skate is so easy that I could plan with everyone but was one of the few jumping. Upon arriving on the side for a bite to eat, Frank just came a. |

Frank opted for a sail with Cambers so I also grabbed my Warp again. Frank's 6.4 turned out to be too small so he switched to 7.1. After a while I started bobbing too much so I started grabbing a bigger sail. |

The R-Type runs super well. At first a little too little trim on the downhaul, but after trimming at max it sails super. Gyben, super easy, planting very early. Fast? Race with Dennis Littel and Femke vd Valk: Both on F2 SX and Maui Sails TR2, me first in planee, Dennis spears away and Femke couldn't keep up. |
