4 wingfoil sessions in 44 hours. We really weren’t up for long, but I got a session Monday evening, two on Tuesday and one today at noon just before we left. With 11-13 knots being enough to wingfoil, my number of fun days on the water are increasing vs. waiting for shortboarding conditions of 15-20 knots.

| Post session joy! |
It was a short session on the 7m Duotone Slick wing with the 125l Fanatic Sky board and 2000cm2 foil. I had to pump to get on a plane a few times, or wait for a gust.

| 5 foiling jibes in a row… then time to try some tricks |
I was nicely surprised to be able to do both a toeside foil tack and a duck jibe the 7m. I didn’t stay on the foil for either, but also didn’t fall in. So there is lots to work on even with the big wing. The wind was better through southern Ontario yesterday, but the Launch Pad at Key Harbour in the NE corner of Georgian Bay was still one of the windiest! iWindsurf screen shot from later in the day…

| It got even windier in the afternoon, Oh well. |
The air at 24c and water at 25c meant I just wore shorts! No shoes, no shirt, no problem! Off to the city now, looking forward to being back on the water next week.
