(machine translated in 2023) Best day of the year? Sun and lots of wind
All week wind was predicted for Friday and Saturday, together with Peter driven to Zeeland. It was quite busy, the Germans had a long weekend. The wind was already strong, ff gokke: 4.7 rig up and go.

FSW 84 with Ice 4.7
In the beginning it was very doable, jumping nice waves here and there, but with the left in front that is not my best side and that is why I regularly fell there after a jump. Gyben did not go completely flawless, wind was actually very strong for the 4.7. Martijn came, rigged his 5.3, sailed 2 raks and went rigging to his 4.2. Going back on the water, Martijn plans without problems with his Super Freak 4.2 his rakes. I weigh 15kg less and stood with an Ice 4.7 that has so-it-so more power. This is getting too geek, getting smaller stuff!

FSW 84 with Ice 4.2
With the 4.2 and a smaller fin, it was already a lot better. That didn't really last because the wind was also increasing. This was compensated by a bright sun (clear blue sky) Around 16:00 the tide started to get and that was also clearly noticeable on the water. There was a big swell that slowly turned into steep waves up to 1 meter high, sometimes even more. And that's super cool to jump. Still practiced jumping over the left, slowly it got better and better. On the way back some golfing, lovely.

If Peter hadn't been there I think I would have sailed with my 3.7 and AHD myself, but I don't regret borrowing the set. Now Peter could sail and I could also sail well with my FSW and 4.2

It was a great day, probably the best of the year. So much wind and then a clear blue sky. Everyone walked around with a big smile, and with me it will stay on my face for days. I also think my best day at sea ever, with the highest waves in which I sailed nicely.
Peter, thank you for riding together, it was fun.

13:00 1.5 hour Wind: SW 20/30 kts
Board: JP Freestyle Wave 84 Pro - Select Wave Warrior 24cm
Sail: North Ice 4.7 - North Gold(a) 400cm - Chinook Pro 1 Alloy 165-227
  (machine translated in 2023) Set ran well, control nice, jumping went pretty well. 4.7 was already big in the beginning, but after a while really too big. Martijn planned around with his Freak 4.2, and I with 15 kg less hat still control with my Ice 4.7.. Good sail!
15:30 2.5 hour Wind: SW 25/40 kts
Board: JP Freestyle Wave 84 Pro - Select Wave Warrior 22cm
Sail: North Ice 4.2 - North Gold(a) 400cm - Chinook Pro 1 Alloy 165-227
  (machine translated in 2023) Sailed wonderfully, 4.2 often too big. Wind was really hard. Freestyle Wave did wonderfully well with my 4.2. Had extremely high power/wind in my sail, but could still sail around quite controlled. Top
