Saturday Night's Alright for Foiling - and regular windsurfing

I headed back north from the city to catch the last wind of the day - and was thrilled to get a quick set of runs on the 6.2 Duke / 108 Skate. Wind was 18-22 knots and perfect for around 20 minutes for some nice shortboard windsurfing.

Shortboard session - not that much time actually planing

Then the wind dropped a bit to 12-16 and I put the BIC Techno with the foil under the 6.2. Those runs were fun too! Way easier to get upwind.

Foil Session - some long runs in a short time

I only got up on the foil a few times, but my wife caught some more video.

It is great being able to us the same already rigged sail for two very different feelings. The short board is so easy to sail in a straight line, but tacking is hard. The Techno is hard to sail while foiling, but super easy to tack. Very different versions of wind surfing.

We watched the sun setting and the wind didn't actually let up. It turns out could have sailed more well past sunset but I was just happy to have gotten my 8th session in 9 days!
