Peter (50230km):
7 hours ago Stuart Causeway, FL. Another great wing session in SE thermals, with plenty of power on 6.0. Wanted to work on backwinding or 360s but discovered that the replacement Starboard Wingboard also has water coming out next to the footstrap plugs - chances are they again put too much epoxy in so it overheated and created a weak point that broke after a while, even without using foot straps. So took the new inflatable (Skybrid Air 115) out that I had just bought for travelling. Took a little bit to get used to the extra wobbling and the lack of dampening swing weight, but loved it after making it upwind to the flats at the House of Refuge. Probably got more clean foot switches on my good side than every before in a session. Another great day in Florida.
