Late arvo foil @ Foilville.

Big wind shadow on the shore at Foilville, so it didn't look windy at all.  I also figured the breeze would fester, so rigged the Hydro 91 + 725 wing + 7.0 Iris.

Heading out I could see the wind line, and sure enough it was a solid 20-25K through the middle of the river.

After a couple of over-powered runs up to Mounts Bay Road and back I retreated to the lee of Melville, looking for some flatter water.

Nice and flat, but much less pressure also, and I could only manage a 24K peak.

So, despite being overcooked it was lovely out there, very warm with the ENE, and I drained my Camelbak keeping the mouth moist, cos the wind was so dry!

Breeze had some staying power and I was lit all the way to dusk Cool
