New records!
What a day.
Not much wind in the morning. But the forecast was good and we rigged small
sails, 7,8 ;-) When we
where ready the wind was around 20 knots. We where a bit traditional regarding
fins. MXR and C3 Venom. When we came up to the strip I (anders) set a 40 knots
run. Daniel was surprised but it took only a moment when he landed a 41 knots
run. We did about 15 plus 40 knots runs, then we went back to the surfcenter
for lunch at Kempinsky. The downwind was challenging. At lunch I had 40.3 and
Daniel 40.4 on 5x10sec. After lunch we rigged 7,0 and changed fins to Lockwood,
X-Fins and T43. Daniel had a few very good runs right away. My sail was not in
trim, too much tension on the battens in the top. After adjusting I had a few
+40 on top, but the wind went slowly down. We took some photos and went happily
home at 5pm.
Daniel had
a new PB on top speed and myself, 250m, 500m, 5x10 sec.
Also the
2:nd and 3:rd best posted speeds on 7,8 ever at GPSSS.

A no wind day
No wind
today almost, we booked at glass window boat/snorkelling tour, but before that
I just had to go out for a few runs with my new Loft 9,6. It has a low end that
is far more powerful than the 9,5 from previous years. Maybe not the high end
speed as last year? Still to be proved. But the new 9,2 will probably be my big
speed sail this year. Tomorrow we looking forward for some real speed.

A great Thuesday
Today was the first day on the water.
Daniel and Anders rigged 8,6.
Very underpowered at the beginning but the wind picked up good at lunch and we did some good tuning and fin-testing. Today Z-fins, Hurricane, BFF, C3 proto and MXR.
Here is a raw video:
