Perfect conditions for testing another foil, the Axis HPS 1050. It felt great right from the start, easy to get going and fast! No issues, turning, tacking, cranking on it. I likey!! Changed down to 4.0m to see how that was. Foil kept me going even though there was quite a few holey areas, nice! Need to have another session to check some things but overall impressed with it. Tweezer finally showed up and lead me into temptation and the sea of doom (aka Baynes channel over by Chatham Islands) A major river running, big boily thingys, whirlpool like things, elevator bulges out of nowhere! On the downwind return portion seemed like no wind but we were flying by the land. Watch battery died so a shortened gps log
