The Mission - 3rd Edition - Day 2
Finally wind, SW and firm. First a fixed thunderstorm of an hour with an incredible amount of rain. Reasonably hazardous, 1st heat: Bad start, 2nd heat late at the start, 3rd heat well sailed, final with too small a set.

In the rain I had already rigged my 6.8 in the hope of keeping it after the rain. Unfortunately, too small and with a Hiptrapeze it did not sail well at all. |

With the 7.5 I got good in Plane but soon I had to go to max trim. Sail was just to hold and for just surfing actually too difficult. But during the slalom it went well, although it was difficult. |

Great to jump again, wind was good, waves beautiful and because of the Battle everyone seemed to be on the shore so a lot of space on the water. I didn't have to sail the final, but Onno did, so I only sailed as 101. Unfortunately not really successful. I didn't think I had time to get my Slalom set. But the start was a long time coming. First start went well, only almost everyone was false, I was already well over the line. 2nd start went a little less but again too much false. 3rd start 3 fell right in front of me on the start line, and at the 2nd buoy the wind fell away. Unfortunately. After the final we stopped for the award ceremony. |
