Speedsurfingblog: It could be worse
I have double feelings about today, one side I am really stoked about the great conditions we had on the Amstelmeer. So much fun and challenging to handle the gusts. It was hard on the muscles, the Neilpryde RS:Slalom MK3 6.2 was many times too big for good control. But I managed to keep everything together and this is a good feeling.
The downside was 2 GPS’s (navi) not functioning like they should… OK one was on low battery, but the other is still jammed (not working, but showing something on display)
Another negative experience, at one point I was standing in 1.30m deep water and noticed my hair was still dry. Interesting on a 80ltrs board, I think 60 seconds later I was going crosswind at about 30kn and my fin got stuck in a bunch of roots (small tree). I forwarded and this time my RS:Slalom survived without any scratch. I swimmed to the fin and saw the fin cutted for 75% the roots. After the session I discovered my trailingedge was broken/bended due the big forces. Interesting was the leading edge is still perfect. Also interesting this fin still did 37kn 😛
Just got a email from Sarah Hebert about the Orange Speed Crossing, also Sonntag-fins.com has a nice article about this. What a good performance, the SL-S seems to do it all long-distance, slalom and speed ;)… One design.
Lets hope tommorow will be another great day!!! The falcon 79 has again some serious damage after today so this one will be out of order for a while, the bottom has a new crack. Maybe I take the Falcon 262 for a spin (it should be repaired properly first), or my amazing falcon 91 tommorow. It doesn’t really matter, I know it will be FUN and good training.
