(machine translated in 2023) Nice afternoon surfing, one of the first real spring days, moderate east wind but a clear blue sky and 15 degrees. Delicious. Many hours and kilometers made.

14:00 1.5 hour Wind: E 8/16 kts
Board: HTS Super Fast M - Drops Alex Aguera 46cm
Sail: Arrows Dragster 8.5 - Arrows Ultimate Race 490cm - Arrows Ultimate Race 190-240
  (machine translated in 2023) Wind seemed on the side on the skinny side, all at minimum trim and off you go. First few raks it was on my toes. But soon I had more than enough to plan nicely powered. Sail tighter. Wind increased even further. Sail at max. On the GPS 48.2 km / h achieved. Time for a smaller fin, Hurricane 44cm.
15:30 1.75 hour Wind: E 8/18 kts

  (machine translated in 2023) With the Hurricane 44cm, the set runs just a little quieter and seems faster. Walked a lot of altitude to go a good bit downwind every now and then. Often 45+ km/h. outlier of 48.6 km/h. That 50 km/h just wouldn't work. Around 17:00 the wind often became less and more often the outhaul had to be completely loose to be able to plan. Nice day. Afterwards I read the GPS log and it showed that the 50km/h had been reached.
