Awesome foil session, a perfect 12-18, N to NW'er.

The 880cm2 kite wing is super forgiving and easier to use when the wind gets over 15 knots.

It does tend to bash the wave-tops a little heading out as it doesn't lift as quickly as the WS1 wing.

The 1220 cm2 WS1 wing turns a little quicker and easier to slow and de-power to ride the swells, so perhaps more fun overall.

Nice to have both to mix it up

Short and sweet on the water, very off and on gustiness.  

Loads there foiling today, great to see

Remember me? I used to sail. I braved the arctic conditions to try our my new rig. I rigged up the 7.0 to see what it looked like and went out on the 6.0. The predicted tempest never eventuated but it was fun nonetheless.

Interesting session at dutchies, first time in 18 months sailing on opposite tack in the ocean, hitting the waves and trying to control the board in the opoosite tack was a learning curve once again, started to get into the groove but the little 6.3 KAR sail decided it had enough and the bottom panel blew out so end to an interesting session. Good test for the Manta and the race sail in the conditions.
