Initially shocked by the wind that was an hour early and blowing a solid 20 mph, I put on my wet chilly wetsuit and rigged up the freestyle board. Two nice runs later it was a shlog fest, and I was fortunate to make it back to the boat ramp. The wind dropped to @15 mph and sunny, but I did not trust it to last long enough for me change to the foil board and a smaller sail. I was lazy. The wind responded to my leaving by stabilizing out @15 which would have been fine for foiling. Bird was above forecast today. Hard to know what to trust. |
