Very rare Friday afternoon sail. Could not get comfortable, it was like I'd forgotten how to sail, no stability in the sail, wtf?! I *think* I didn't have enough downhaul, note to self: write the extension settings down so when you change it for a different sail you set it back to the correct one, not the one for the printed length. Grrr.
Upside the first 5 mins were awesome: practiced railing the board - realy weird feeling to look down and see the windward rail hovering 15-20 cm above the water and the chatter of the chop replaced by a slicing through surf kind of sound. Felt neat though, something to work on to get the balance right for sustained flight.
