WWT training with NO wind
The days with strong NE winds are rare, but today was his day.
Perfect wind to train well with my Warp 7.0.

I was a bit late, and apparently no one had reported to Jan and Roel, who decided not to give training.

On the flat water it ran super nicely, but more to the back the chop gets higher and behind the island there were even waves, almost perpendicular to the sailing direction, these came to turn around the island. In those waves, it was a struggle. I quickly went to the side to grab my SL4 as it gives much more control.

With the SL4 things went a bit better. But when the wind was a little less and certainly closer to the side, I again had too little pressure to sail well with the SL4. Time for a sandwich and a think about what to change about my trim to sail better.

On the side, it turned out that Roel was still in the mood for Training and had gone to get a boat. While Roel was explaining the shackles, I talked to others about what to change. Tip was, give your SL7 a try. So I put my 37cm under it.

With the SL7 37cm vaader it is quite good. Was sometimes on the small side, but did go. The practice matches didn't go great. Gyben wasn't super, often went in. Speed was good, but on the highest kick I was on the edge. The straight went well, but throwing the set wide for a Gybe was less.
After the heats I see Patrick van Mol sailing... He also competed in a few heats. Nice training for both of us. Patrick is 1 point ahead of me in the Regiocup ranking. Struggle went on immediately, with planing I was often faster, at top speed it changed a bit. That can be exciting, although I have the feeling that Patrick is really better, even if you only look at his starts... Very sharp.. All the time!

iSonic 111 with Deboichet SL7 39cm and Warp 7.0
Since the wind was occasionally a little less, I changed for my 39cm. Could walk and plan better, but all in all the wind started to decrease a lot.

  (machine translated in 2023) Set ran nicely, especially where the water was flatter it was super. But on the other side of the mussel bank, the chop became higher and steeper and that with the Warp 7.0 well powered, the control was less. And once past the island, the waves from the Grevelingen turned towards the rippling bank and you encountered waves of half a meter or more at right angles. No fun.

  (machine translated in 2023) With the SL7 39cm I walked more easily height, control was nicer. During the practice matches it went well, but gyben still went bad.. More practice.
