(machine translated in 2023) Nice day, wind was less than hoped, but wonderfully sailed with 7.5. And with sailing on a tandem as the pinnacle. Dry all day and sometimes a little sun. There was a whole group of the English Army sailing.

Present: Jurjen

11:45 2 hour Wind: S/SW 15/20 kts
Board: HTS Super Fast M - Select Lightning Evo 45cm
Sail: North R-Type 7.5 - North Viper 75 460cm - Arrows Ultimate Race 190-240
  (machine translated in 2023) Wind was not bad, in the beginning I could hardly get into Plane, had already screwed the 45cm under it to be sure. Wind took more then and the GPS just caught for a moment.
14:00 1 hour Wind: S/SW 15/20 kts
Board: F2 Tandem
Sail: North R-Type 7.5 - North Viper 75 460cm - Arrows Ultimate Race 190-240
  (machine translated in 2023) Sailed together with Jurjen on the F2 Tandem of the surf center. Jurjen with a Stealth 8.2. Together 15.7 square meters. The Tandem plans in low winds, but accelerates very slowly. Steering and difficult and turning is impossible with such large sails. But it's super cool. You're close to each other. Starting is also not easy, starting water is never good and if the board lies with its nose in the wind, it is difficult to get on course. And it's super exhausting.
15:15 1.5 hour Wind: SW 17/22 kts
Board: F2 Sputnik 230 WCE - Select Lightning M 34cm
Sail: North R-Type 7.5 - North Viper 75 460cm - Arrows Ultimate Race 190-240
  (machine translated in 2023) I didn't feel like rigging another sail so I wanted to test the 7.5 on the Sputnik 230. With the 34cm that should be possible. That went very well. I didn't expect the Sputnik to sail so easily with the 7.5. Unfortunately, the wind started to sink in and I was already very tired.
