One of the best things about the BWD website is the GPS tracks. I see that I made 99 out of 100 gybes. DAMN!! I missed one. That sucks although 91 kms in November is pretty amazing. More please!!
Arrived to cold rain and blowing 10-15kts. Rigged up the 6.0m Flyer and was well powered to over powered for the first hour. Planes flying overhead and I thought I head 100 people singing 'Oh Canada'. Came in to rig down to the 4.5m Flyer and warm fingers. Went out and was perfectly powered for the next 2 hours. Came off the foil twice in 3 hours once because I gybes in a lull, rookie mistake. Ha! DOG showed up and was ripping on his OR Wing. Then The Twizz came out and was doing his tricky turns with his Wang above and behind him. It really seems like his does what he wants with his Wang, Spining and flipping it like it was a toy. At one point I was headed over to Discovery and saw Twizz heading out looking like he was doing an upwinder to IV..? Weird!?! Wore my new palmless chaps today which kept my hands toasty!! It was a bit gusty but for first 2 hours hardly any holes but last hour the holes increase, had to pump a bit and ensure I was gybing in the gusts. The 4.5m Flyer is so easy to pump!
Mr. B. made a surprise visit for a quick swim and chat at the end of my session. If I didn't have chores I would still be out there as it was a really great day!!
Ps. I must say that I love Stat Holidays.
BOBSON OUT!!
