Finally a freestyle sesh!!!! I was lit on the 4.2! There were ramps and I thought this will be a spectacular sesh! I got a couple of shov-its and a table top and a couple big stock air jumps, So fun. Then i tried a couple swell funnels and I got really close on one, so I thought I can get one. The next one i did! I got a swell funnel! You carve 180 on a swell, (this puts you in the same position as if you went switch and ducked the sail), same entry as the swell kono) and then you pop the board downwind instead of upwind like the swell switch kono, and throw in a upwind 360 at the end. It wasn't as slidy and stylish as Alex Edholm's, but I did it!!!! I was so STOKED! The strong wind only lasted 1/2 hour or so, but I had tons of fun!! Then the wingers got thick and I was schlogging, so I went in. |
