M137 7.1m Tribal SL2 Carbon 36 (#fullysick!).
kinda skunked. Windy for a quite while before I got there and whilst rigging. Got one OK gust in the first 10 minutes and then it died. Pottered around for a while. A lot of not planing considering I was on my big board. Found a few random puffs over the next hour or so for some low 30s action at best. About to call it quits when I found a gust heading out the back- well past the white post and sent it for an unexpected 37kt 10sec. But that was just a second lucky gust. Should have rigged the 8.7m! Derigged and the wind came in a solid 25kt+ in the gusts (for 5 minutes anyway &^*&^*&^!!!). Must have found another OK run to bring av up way higher than expected.
