3599 days ago Primbee, NSW, AU Westerly up to 25 knots or so.
A fantastic afternoon of windsurfing - windy (eventually), warm, blue skies, warm-clear water, flat conditions and a new sail! Just like paradise.
Decided to rig the 6.2 after a bit of umming and arring with Stu and it turned out to be the right choice. The Reflex 6 looks great, rigs easily and goes great - stable, powerful, great pumping ability and fast. Did I say that I really like it!
Started off on the iS80 and sailing was pretty on and off with the wind coming in cycles and channels. Catching a good gust was magic as the water was so smooth. Great fun on this combo.
I had a bit of a break and the wind starting cranking in so I switched over to the W49 and again had a fun time. With the reasonably shallow water I was a bit shy to run right into shore. The water chopped up a bit so in the end the speed board was only a knot or so faster than the iS80. Happy
