Stubbornly took a 4 m and HA925 out hoping the wind would fill in. Would have been much better off with a bigger wing and/or foil. Floated around for almost an hour before even bothering to start my watch. Got going up the lake a bit and kept going as far as I could go. Then my progression to windward kept getting worse, wind lightening up, gybes happening on glassier and glassier water, until I came off foil. Slogged back downwind for ~20 min then popped up on foil and came back to the beach and it was already time to head home. Mad pumping sucks (especially after fatigue from the previous day). Thought of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade when they're at the Holy Grail: "He chose poorly". Fun times to be back at Nitinat and see some familiar faces.
