Pat@g (10196km):
2696 days ago Most challenging speed surf session I have ever sailed(apart from the once I managed to do not a single run)
In the morning very hard wind and much to broad, lots of high chop and rolling waves. Not a flat spot to find. The water was more like a patato field, some sandbanks. It was a day when it's hard only standing in the water holding your gear down. Only a few riders were trying.
Still I managed to do 2 speedruns in some way controlled, in conditions I would have never tought I would be able to sail in. Decided to wait, for what turned out a few hours.
Later the wind became a little more square and some more riders started doing runs, still very rough. I also did some more, enough to give me a decent Avg.
During one run GW-60 was off, so the avg is slightly better on the GT-31.
On the other hand the GW-60 gave a topspeed of 78,73km/h and a 2s of 77,10km/h
It turned out to be my 3th fasted Avg ever.
So happy to sneak in two more days, thanks to my wife Martine, Ryanair and son Thomas, to bring her home.
Leaving the beach at 6pm sunday, arriving after the 1150Km drive at 6am monday, just in time to have breakfast home and go to work...
