Speedsurfingblog: Another Surfsession
Yesterday I went to Strand Horst for many reasons. Had to transfer my RS:Slalom sails, meeting with Joerg Sonntag, my brother wanted to go to Horst, teamchallenge Nautical Mile, lots of wind predicted and last but not least check out if I still was able to do some speedsurfing on Strand Horst since my worst USM result ever ;).
It wasn’t really nice, the biggest mistake would have been my 2mm summer shortarm wetsuit, singlelined. I assume with only a few hours before the longest day it would be OK, but it was way to cold. Something about 10 degrees celsius, I was shaking all the time. And the speed wasn’t very exciting which couldn’t make me warm. The plan was to stick and make 5 runs till 20:00, but I just made it till 17:30 and was happy to have my clothes on.
Today I might use my WINTER wetsuit again, global warming…
I am satisfied with yesterdays dayranking since I know what I have done. There was definitly some space, the fastest run was a bit dangerous, I was quickly accelerating to 69.8km/h slowing down in the middle to 63km/h to cross a few windsurfers, than full throttle back again to 70km/h peak. Yep this was my 67.5km/h run, could have been faster for sure. I didn’t want to push it at that moment, because I had no precedence… And it was no record day anyhow, soo don’t want to spoil someone else his day ;).
Tuning was good for the 7.0, now loose leach was just at the black/white vertical stripe. This is excellent for speed. My small sonntag SL-S also need more rake for strand horst, think something about 13 or maybe 14 degrees for high speed potential. This is a big difference with the fanatic falcon monoconcave.[IMG]https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3210168910980806269-1980387753635770912?l=www.speedsurfingblog.com[/IMG]
