Looks like there is enough wind to foil at the Terminal.

Me and one other winger got out at BB yesterday, quite pleasant conditions with sunshine and decent bumps rolling through with not too bad of a walk to depth. Finally scored some 10-15 second flagged rides with the wing.

Nice foil session today at Ferry Terminal. Wind was 14-17kn, it dropped when I launch, was underpowered on 4m, then it picked up and was really great . Nice to see Michael and few other wing foilers.

Nice one Slappy! Glad you scored. I was working on my van and the wind in the trees had my thinking I should be out there.

Got out today though. Fun session at the Terminal with Dmitry, Andrew and a few others. Finally had a good session on my wr980 and had a bit of a taste of what down winding would be like. There was some nice knee high swell at the end of the terminal where Dmitry and I sailed for a while. You could jibe off one and then just cruise toeside down wind for what seemed like ages. Then back out and repeat. So much fun for a light wind day. Forgot to turn my GPS on until about half way through me session.
