Couldn't wait any longer, took afternoon off and headed to CP at 2pm. Arrived to GregCan, Gautham, and RedVanPaul all beaming, in a circle chanting BDE, BDE, BDE!! I'm not sure what that meant but I took their smiles as a positive sign. I looked at the water and saw 15-17kt gusts and maybe 10-12kt lulls so I rigged the 5.2m fat and had on the 900 front foil for some speed as the last few session of Winging have been pretty slow. I had to find a gust and pump to get on foil but after that it was on foil all the time. After 40 mins the wind lightened up so I headed in for the 7.0m. Morgan was there deciding that there was not enough wind for his 70l board. I agreed. I headed back out and for then next almost hour it was just about finding gusts to get on the foil and then hope there was enough to keep going. I found a gust at the end and foiled into just before the channel marker. Good session and good workout as there was lots of pumpy-pumpy-hump! Hoping for some more N tomorrow, oh ya, more sunshine too as it was delicious!!
BOBSON OUT!!
