Foil session #4
Sneaky morning training before work, decided to try the race sail again. good for bottom end but the inabilty to 'switch off' the power like I can with a RAF was my undoing. Upon saying that my foiling time was significantly up on last time with a few touchdowns here and there but not nearly as many dismounts.
A previous harness hook scrape on the bottom monofilm panel finally let go on one of said dismounts, I proceeded to sail upwind towards the freeway and once the panel completely disappered I decided that was my hint to head back in. still foiling nearly all the way back.
Wasnt quite able to get the upwind height of the last few outings, partly as i was way overpowered once foiling (and paranoid about the sailing blowing out) but the track shows the potential.
