Wow what a day arrived at brog about 11.30 wind was marginal at first but
was getting some nice runs in.
The wind picked up nicely and was having some fantastic runs with some nice
long hand drags maybe we can have hand drags for a force of nature score
(anything to get a higher score) was managing some little chop hops to
getting the feel of them now. Atonce point I picked up a bit of weed on fin
wow did i get some spin out ! everytime I even put a little presure on the
fin the board just spun sideways.
Had some heavy rain and the wind dropped off stayed out on the water and
tried some front to sailing or what ever its called was getting round the
other side of the sail and was pushing it against the wind ok but kept
luffing the board up into the wind.
Then the wind picked up and up and up ! was blowing 30 - 40 mph and I was
up the other end of the lake was hardwork coming back with 8.5 sail
wind continued to blow for rest of afternoon and my little board was in the
garage at home
