Off the chart wind (see chart below.)

Rigged three times (see chart below.)

As soon as the back loopable ramps appeared, I raced shore to switch from the 5.0 to the 4.2 since I didn't want to be stupidly overpowered when trying those. Tried 5 or so, with 2 decent attempts. Amazing L stayed on the 4.7 the whole day.

Tried 2 starboard forwards in the flat water, but wussed out and let go both times. I think my body got around though. I think Keith has video of it.

At least 20 V attempts. Zero completions.

Guy says there was a gust to 44 knots.
