AlfaMale (19467km):
276 days ago Great day sailing with a whole bunch of friends today… felt like summer.
F4 400 190 tail no shim. Epic foil
CHS 7.1m superb sail so smooth and powerful
FMX 91 MastB all way forward 137. Great old board been through a lot together!
Kyeemagh for a few runs then I went well past the end so thought I might as well keep going, all the way to Kurnell where I saw Baz in the distance and picked up Tim for the run back to the beach. Foils are great, I could make it in one tack!
Blasting with the boys on iQ, they had much better depth downwind but if I went less deep I could equal their VMax with pure SPEEEEED!!
Then I lined up a few Of the boys down the runway. Mitch, Tim and Fez were all fast in the smooth water and gusts but I could keep up or pass them all… especially easy in the lulls the foil just keeps gliding past. The gear (and practice) has come a long way. I felt mostly stable even on 10s 29kt runs!!
