Great foil today, at first on my own and then joined by Stroppo after work. I messaged T1 to see if he wanted to join us but he couldnt make it today, something about being busy grooming his unicorn.
Wow what a day he missed, seriously powered up on the 7.8 with plenty of brown wetsuit moments but only 1 crash. I attempted alot more gybes than I normaly do and was rewarded with a pb alpha and a few refreshing dunks to cool down. Also pb,s for me in the nm, hr and 5x10.
Went in for a break when Strop arrived and Bob n Chris showed up for a look. I was thinking of changing down but decided to continue with what I had. Had a ball for another hour or so then the wind started to shut down. I got greedy and done one run too far. I had a slow slog all the way from liptons all the way back to base. This surprisingly was one of the days highlights. I was joined for a few minutes by a pod of dolphins who stuck with me making it my best encounter ever. The little one was enjoying hiding under my board then appearing out from the side and looking up at me then darting back under again. Top foil day so far I think.
