Took afternoon off as wind was looking good. Arrived at CP at 11:15am to 2 Wings out, GregCan and HighRocker but they were headed back to Willows so rigged up the 6.0m as it looked 10-15kts and had the PTM926(1263cm2) on the front. Said Hi to Morgan (Gordon) or whatever he's calling himself today. in the parking as he was rigging up. I went out and it was awesome right away!! GregCan came back to play as I headed over close to Willows. Did some long runs from JemmyJones over to MTI and back. TnT was out there looking fast and steady! I can't really figure out who most Wingers are as their Wings all look the same and they don't wear colourful shirts and almost all have helmets and some with neoprene hoods on so can't really see their faces. TnT went down so I was able to foil by and see who it was. Anyways, headed back to CP and headed in to move footstraps back and foil back. Much better!! I've been trying to see how far forward I can have the footstraps to see if they'll work for Winging as well. I guess I'll have to Wing again one day to see it will work with footstraps where they are. Again, anyways, headed back out with the jumping Windjunky and Toe-side Rupp-Doog as every time I see Ruppy-Doo he's riding toeside. Werid!?!?! The Pope was heading waaaay up Caddy Bay and then headed back over to Willows. After 62kms travelled and my hands were getting cold even though I had the palmless mitts on and considering the wind was lessening, I decided to call it a day. Said Hi to TunaCan who was driving by with Archie and RobDS who was considering heading out but as the wind was lighter he decided against it. Pulled the plug and headed home for an early Corona and bowl of sausage, pasta and egg. YUMM!! Maybe some more on Sunday..?? Hope so! Maybe it'll be a Wing day...??
BOBSON OUT!!
