Day Off, NICE!! Arrived to 10-12kts and quite steady. Rigged up the Seven.0 Flyer which is called my 'Session Saver'. Tide was out so had to walk gear down to water and then wade out as there were lots of weeds in close. Then just barely made it over the sandbar. NICE! Took a minute to get up on the foil as I was using my 800cm2 front foil as I usually have been using my 1100cm2 foil. The 800cm2 is amazing, points high, and flies so smooth and fast. It just needs much more speed to get foiling compared to the 1100cm2. Sailed out and around for 45 mins and then the wind got lighter so had to pumpy-pump to 'keep it up' to get in. The 7.0m Flyer is definitely a session saver or even better a session creator as the wind was never above 13kts as I was completely sheeted in and on a broad reach, so never over powered. Hoping for some more tomorrow. As I was packing up thought it was coming back but waited 20 mins and 'not' to be.
BOBSON OUT!!
