the conditions were pretty gusty and I was playing around with fins in the last days to find something that fits the board best . Not the best session but learned a lot the last days about my new speed gear so I am looking forward to the next session.

Last morning in La Franqui. Less wind and less radical than sunday means higher speeds. Sadly the wind was dropping a bit after i made a run of 78,92, i have this on gopro headcam video.
Ben will make a youtube movie from the video's we made on sunday and monday. We also have many nice pics, also from the hardcore conditions from sunday.

We didn't only escape from the shitty conditions in the netherlands, we also wanted to prepare for the Belgium Speed week next month. I think i'm more than ready for it. Never did 40 knots average 4 days in a row. Ben and Hans find out that the C3 fins rock under the JP Speedboards!

Nice fintesting session learned a lot allready knew the C3 are nice but now i'm convinced as soon as i switch my fin to the 22Venom wide proto my runs got faster and could position my board better on the water with a lot of control but i didn't have time or wind enough to make a average Because we had to go home to work;(

Great Pictures ! Maybe we have to go there as well Cool As discussed on some other postings, the GPS Teamchallenge has drawn a lot of attention in holland the last few weeks. That's great for the sport and motivation off all surfers around the globe. With tempartures rising in Europe i think the next few weeks the posting will be more balanced
