After foiling last night, I was having a beer with JJ on the beach when Bobson texted me saying Nitinat was great earlier that day. We decided right then to venture up there the next morning. Arrived at 11:45am to see Slogson turn into Bobson - stoked! Proceeded to be nicely powered on the 5m for a few hours. After coming down from a reasonable hoist near the end of my session I heard a funny crack below... popped back up and didnt think much of it till a few tacks later. Things started to feel a little funky so went into the beach. Noticed my fuse screws were a little loose. Tightened everything backup, and headed out, did another jump, landed fine, gybed, and CRACK whole setup gone. Fuse, front wing, and back wing. The Axis mast to Takuma fuse adaptor cracked in half sending my gear to the locker. C'est la vie. Hopefully my wife doesnt notice a new foil setup in the basement :)
