(machine translated in 2023) First day after my holiday I immediately chance to surf. Wind was predicted to turn from S/SW to NW, doubtful for Herkingen, but because the wind was going to turn, I went to the Grevelingendam. Unfortunately, the wind did not turn, so the wind on the side was a lot less than on the water. Started with my S-Type and Daytona 6.6, would have been bigger, but was eager to test the new foot straps. First the Drake Slalom Pro 34cm underneath, which also worked well last time with my Duke 6.7. Wind was not for the Slalom Pro and I could hardly walk high. Went to shore for the Hurricane 36cm. That ran a lot better, could run well at height and the speed also went up immediately. After a sandwich back on the water and then the wind started to subside slightly. The Drake Slalom Pro 38cm but caught and back on the water. This one ran just a little faster. Through sails until the wind completely subsided and I should actually be rigging an 8.5.

Grevelingendam

13:45 0.25 hour Wind: W/SW
Board: Starboard S-Type 104 - Drake Slalom Pro 34cm
Sail: North Daytona 6.6 - North Viper 75 460cm - HPL Slalom 177-238
  (machine translated in 2023) Vin was too small, couldn't walk at a height, and barely got any speed. Probably too wind was too soft and it should be possible with more wind.
14:15 0.75 hour Wind: W/SW
Board: Starboard S-Type 104 - Hurricane SRA 36cm
Sail: North Daytona 6.6 - North Viper 75 460cm - HPL Slalom 177-238
  (machine translated in 2023) Set ran very well, until the wind became less and walking altitude became more difficult. What fine fins those Hurricanes are. Never spinouts, give you a lot of confidence as a surfer.
15:00 1.5 hour Wind: W/SW
Board: Starboard S-Type 104 - Drake Slalom Pro 38cm
Sail: North Daytona 6.6 - North Viper 75 460cm - HPL Slalom 177-238
  (machine translated in 2023) The Drake Slalom Pro 38cm works quite well as a light weather fin for the S-Type. You can walk well with height, although you have to be a bit light-footed with the fin if you still have little speed.
