The goal for today was Vrouwepolder. So via Roha and Zwemer (if we are in the area) to the Veerse Dam. Turned out the wind against the expectation to be almost south and not almost west. Drove on and checked Neeltje Jans: no one and little wind. Then to brouwersdam, measuring wind: 14 kts, too little for at sea. Then go to the tip and set up big. Starting with 6.7, on the side small but middle on large, wind even increased even. 5.9 on testified. First with the Skate then with the JP FSW 84. At the end I briefly tested my new Select Eagle 27cm

On the side trouble getting away, in the middle of too much pressure, but still enough control. Only because of the great pressure not fun to do crazy things. Wind increased to really too much. It's strange that the Cross-Batten twists completely open when overpowered. |

Nice, set immediately looked good. What is that Duke 5.9 stable even in the waves with hands loose. Not really super waves to jump a lot or ride the waves. |

First time with the Eagle, let's test. Under my JP FSW 84 with Duke 5.9 not super optimal. Little pressure, will go better with the Sputnik, which has more rails. |
