Oh my god, I "LOVE that MACHINE"!
What a great but short session. It was a record day in theory and it was almost a record day in real too .
After the first 3 runs I felt something wasn't right with the trim so I put some more downhaul on the sail and that was a good decision. Runs got faster and faster. And that had as result a great topspeed of 84,92 km an hour on Herkingen in difficult conditions.
The run was not bad too but I had to bear of into the chop and that was tricky at times, certainly when the wind increased some more. Than I shittened my suit and was not be able to bear off anymore. It looked frightening.
Nature at his best today, what a force!!
It was great to see my friends and surfbuddies again after such a long time!
I think the fin did a great job for topspeed and gave great confidence in the chop when bearing off!!
