Happy Valentines Day all Windlovers. I decided to take a few hours off work to enjoy the cool breeze. Arrived to CP to 8-13kts with The Junkman. Decided on (bigger) 6.0m sail and smaller (900cm2) foil. The first hour was light (8-13kts) with a few holes and then it picked up to 12-15kts for 2nd hour with a few stronger gusts out by Jemmy Jones with lots of flat water. Foiled all over with Danno, H-Rock and the Junkman with lots of WooHoo's!! Danno almost lapped me, meaning foiling by me one way then coming back and I had just pumped my ass off to get onto the foil before he passed me again. HA!! That was close. Anyways, Wind seemed like it was picking up and the waves were getting bigger so I called it and headed back to work. A bit chilly on the hands with a couple of snowflakes out there. Lots of tide today as going out past Jemmy Jones was like foiling through the washing machine, felt pretty weird as the foil was going where it wanted to. On the way back to the boat launch went past another Winger boosting some jumps. H-Rock said his name was 'Steve', probably needs a nickname I'm guessing. Super fast runs in the flat water on the lee side of JJ. 60 more kms to get to 20,000kms on a foil. I might celebrate with a Corona.
BOBSON OUT!!
ps. XOXO
