4th Wing session. Arrived to H-Rock leaving, not a good sign. Both he and Greg-Can were saying it's dropping. Not good. It was 12-15kts and Marky-Mark went out and was on the foil right away. Greg-Can and I headed out and he foiled right away and it took me a couple mins to catch a gust to get going. For the first hour it was good, 12-15kts I'm guessing. Docker and Shagalicious both arrived and came out and were foiling easily and continuously. I could get up on the foil but all my turns really sucked except 1 which I almost made through planing but slowed to much so had to pump back up to speed. I'm losing the power as I pass downwind and am not able to keep the board turning and power up the Wing quick enough. I'm close so it'll come soon. After an hour it lightened up with only a few gusts to get going. I'm guessing I need 12-14kts to get going with my 6.2m. I need more practice pumping the wing and maybe a smaller board to be able to pump the board. Still fun to get up on the foil as I'm able to go soooooo slow but still foil, it feels weird. Well, I've got the next 3 days off so I"m hoping for full time Winging. Please pray for WIND!!
Gotta Gybe-son OUT!!
