Unfortunately too little wind, could sometimes just plan in the gusts, but certainly not run a height. Even with minimal trim too little. |

Actually just too much wind for the 7.0. Board had some problems with tilting along the length axis, length fin, chop and width in the tail do not work well together. Heavy! |

Test, rear foot straps inwards and a slightly smaller fin than normal, the 36m instead of the 38. Yes, a bit better. Sail was really too big. |

Immediately great! Control, speed. In the beginning super, nice full throttle over the chop, gybjes practice. Sail got very big at the end. Board and fin still work great together. |

First time with the Warp F2010 5.7. Rigging was fast and smooth, cambers rotate not entirely easy. Clearly trimmed by Nikaj. It just gives a hard tug on the sail to make the cambers turn over and then it certainly works well. Vin just too small, couldn't walk a height. But no spinouts. Otherwise delicious. Gyben went well. Wind was still increasing so the 5.7 was also big. And I'm tired. |
