Had to go to Parksville to pick something up so grabbed my gear for a bonus sail. Wanted to try the new Goya Banzai. It worked great. Soft, maneuverable, easy handling. It didn’t seem super powerful, but definitely enough. Looking forward to trying it at Long Beach. No real waves to speak of and not much wind so not the best day. Would have been better on the 111 L but way too long a trek for a board change. Or could have used a bigger fin with the bigger sail. I’m surprised how well the Goya Thruster goes up wind on the smallish centre fin but it didn’t seem to want to with the 5.5 in the marginal wind. Bonus: only “local” there, well kinda lonely. Nice to have a little company, but I guess the problem comes when a little becomes a lot or when a different clan shows up.
