I think there was wind today LOL ...
wind picked up really good and i dont have my masts for the smaller sails arghhhh
wind did kick in roughly from 15 to 25 kts ..
SOoooooo the only option was to take out the 8.6...handful yes contollable very yes...
Sea state chaotic man that was a mess this direction is always the same , really good for bump n jump can get some really good air..
well tried out the new point 7 for the first time and was really skeptic to take it out in these kind of conditions but took a real surprise to me how this sail really handles ...
did the tunning on the beach to roughly what i would tune it to and some minor adjustments the sail just rocked !!!! It has really good power and quick accelertion but it is very easy to handle , i can also see a great advantage of its bigger twist off it really helps in the stronger gusts and as the wind drops than the bottom leech starts tighting keeping the power ..
rotation of the cams is super smooth and mind you the cams are locked in tight onto the mast !!!!
Out of the gybes the sail just locks in and gives you full power really powerful which is great ...
All my runs today are tested only crosswind today because off the wind was to hectic and too risky but the consistentcy of the long distance sailing is very good keeping the 500m from 29-30kts of speed only if the water state was a bit more normal better results would have been ..
had to put the medium board on and should have put the bigger fin in to gain more controll but like this was not to bad ...
So far very happy with the sail preformance for trying it the first time and looking forward to more sessions dialing it in right ....
