With just one week left in this summer, I finally had another "high wind" session. I timed it just right and caught 20 knot winds: more than was forecast. Somehow our corner of Georgian Bay sometimes exceeds expectations!
My wife took some video and pictures of my session from the boat. I managed to nail a few downwind carving 360s, perfect shortboard tacks and for the video, a nice jump and jibe. In the deep water where the waves roll in from the SW I did some wave ride/turns. I seem to have as much fun slaloming through the rocks though as I do completing tricks.
The Skate 108 and North Duke 6.2 are definitely a nice combination. After an hour and a half and as the wind dropped back down to the forecast 15 knots I called it a day - and maybe the end of my season in Canada?
