Nice steady SW 18-22 today. Good for 10m-12m + twin tip. Worked on jumps for 3 hours. Switched to surfboard but it became way too crowded at 4pm so called it a day.

What does too crowded look like?

What does too crowded look like?

After work crowd showed up at 4pm. Switched to my surfboard but had to wait 5 minutes before I found a clearing to launch. Got frustrated with no room in the honey hole (aborted almost every jump). Can't complain because the first 3 hours was very spacious and courteous.

Had the ferry terminal just about to myself on the foil. Going to try for the next couple of days.

Yet another great day. Steady SW 18-22. Oddly my 12m felt slow and heavy so switched to my 9m ... much better for jumping. Many thanks to Brett for spotting my poor set up (swatting) and fixing it with the correct stance:

1. straight front leg
2. bend back leg while edging upwind
3. roll hips forward

Spent 3 hours unlearning my swat position and correcting my stance ... significantly better

Holy moly the wind kicked in strong mid-afternoon! Should've rigged a 4.7 right away instead of the 5.5!!

Another 3 hours of happiness on 10m North Fuse + TT then 9m Blade Trigger +TT. Early start was smoooooth water SW 18 ramping up to SW 25+.
