Saw Bobson's reports of Cattle Point (thanks!). Looked very light at home. Perfect opportunity to test the DFly's light wind potential. Looked super light at the beach and Bobson/Gus chatting on shore seemed a bad sign for water tme. Bobson eventually gave it another go and was foiling part of the time on a tiny 800 foil/7m. I went out with little expectation of foiling much. First little puff and I was up. Wow. New low end unlocked. 6-10 knots is doable now! Crazy. Tweezer took my board out and made it do Tweezer things in even lighter air. Cool floating along silently in a gentle breeze.
Long and skinny appears to be the new short and phat for light wind.
