Kalmus, Cape Cod. Started on the FWind1 foil since I wanted to try the Slingshot half straps. Did not like them at all, partly because I could not mount them where they belong on my slalom board. Wind picked up, anyway, so I went to the slapper and worked on upwind 360s. Fun, fortunately just very few jellyfish to be seen today, nobody got stung. When the wind dropped again, switched back to the foil after removing the straps and switching the 90 cm mast for the 45 cm mast. With a near-record low tide, still had to walk out far, and was in hip-to-chest deep water everytime I fell. That happened often, since the FWind1 on the short mast is much harder to use than the Infinity foils. Breaches were frequent and much more abrupt, so it took me a while to learn to recover from them without crashing. Finally figured it out somewhat, though, and had fun in the chop. 5.0 all day, can't complain
