The thermal wind kicked in!

I was heading out to get the Launch Pad ready for our next students. The wind picked up right at 3pm, making our corner of the Bay one of the windiest spots again.

I hopped on the WeCanFoil demo North board and 6m wing. It is a remarkably comfortable setup.

I worked on my toe side tacks, a few 360s and had a great time. I wound up foiling half way down the channel north of the island. First time for that! 

Dana from yesterday’s lesson was driving past in their boat and he sent some photos. Looks like I was having fun!

Thanks Dana for the photos



Then Rob sent some photos too!








Almost foiled the whole way around the island!

16 knots on a 2100cm foil! - 15km in 55 minutes

Nice afternoon thermal wind!

Looks like good wind most of the next 4 days!
