Brought out the light wind foil-alternative gear for a super light wind session. One kiter on a 12m was came in as I arrived and said it was a hard go with the 12m. So I pumped the 14.5 Aluula Flite and took the big Tiki dance floor. It was a perfect combination for the day. I got a launch from j_dog and headed out on the windward side. There were no white caps, no chop and no swell. Just wavelets. I had lots of power most of the time but a few lulls did happen but they were not so bad that I was worried about the kite falling. I tried some tacks and made a couple but with such light wind it was hard to have success. Up by Finlayson Point the wind was quite light and I stayed away after struggling there on a couple of gybes. Fun to share the water and stoke with j_dog. Beautiful day.
