3300 days ago Today I just wanted to get a feel of the Speed Blade 6.3, This sail is smaller than my previous 2013 Racing Blade 6.3, but it has a more forward pull and seeper profile. In the beginning I could just about get on a plane and already the speeds were quite ok with the 54cm/80L board. The wind gradually picked up and in the end there were some good gusts as well. The wind had a tad too much South in it most of the time so we could not really make a Port Tack run alomg the dam, but at the end the wind changed a bit and picked up, so I was able to do a few runs. Sail feels nicely balanced and has more pull than the 2013 Racing Blade. Not bad for a first session. Next time I hope to be in flat water with better wind.
