Decided to get up to Gordon's for a better guarantee. Conditions were so-so at first. I was the only one up there which says a lot. Decided this was the day to test Omen's new Operator 1050 foil rig. I was impressed that I was able to get up and running in five minutes despite hit and miss conditions and a ton of kelp. Fast on the upwind and hyper responsive in the swell. I'm used to a lot more stability so I'd need time to master turns on this front foil. The 1050 can turn on a dime while still feeling relatively stable. Did the first session with the Omen and fell back to the Axis HPS980 to set a baseline on a second session. Considering the HPS 980 has 40% more surface area, the operator was pretty awesome in mediocre conditions. I can't wait to try this foil out when it's blowing.
