    Well, THAT didn't go according to plan:-(

    I only logged it to illustrate several don'ts.

    Don't ignore the anemometer saying there is barely enough.

    Don't ignore your gut saying there really isn't enough.

    Even if you do get up on foil, don't continue to pump out farther and farther.

    Tried to drift in on the dying puffs, but finally had to admit defeat and start paddling .

    In my defense, apparently I am an addict, and was going through wing withdrawal.
