:D :D :D
That was amazing!!! Went to IV at 9:30am, took some pics and said hey to Sharky, Marv, MF4 and decided it was too crazy for the BIG GEAR so went to Bazan for some Formula practice. It was blowing 15-18 and looked like it was going to pick up....drove to Sidney and back and thought I didn't want to take the heat from Mr. Kus again so I stopped and rigged up the Severne Overdrive 10.0m and FE board with the 70cm fin. Got on the water by 10:00am and ripped on one tack right to Sidney Spit in a heartbeat!! A couple of downwind tacks and I was zooming by the Cafe at the end of Beacon....the sailboat race had just started with probably 20 boats out racing. I did a few high speed passes for the folks on the wharf and in the cafe so they could see the speed of windsurfing compared to sailboat racing. Lots of smiles and WooHoo's from me had them WooHoo'ing too. NICE!!!! It blew nice solid 12-15kts the entire time. As I was getting back to the launch site it dropped down below 10kts so I called it quits. As I was derigging at Noon it was picking back up but I had the session of the year(so far)....Every run fully powered!! :D I couldn't wipe the S#!T eatin' grin off my face for an hour :D :D :D
I LOVE FORMULA 8) !!!
ps. got a bit of spray in my face but don't think I even got my booties wet for the entire 2 hours!!! MAGICAL SESSION!!! A bit warmer and my hands would have been a bit happier thawing out.!
