Started out on the 7.8 and had a few nice runs and then the wind picked up. Rigged the 6.2 for the first time and headed up the top on the 111 and had troble getting a nice balance. Had a big catapult, the first in years after the board got caught in a trough. I got ragdolled with so much force that the fins in my backpack blew a hole in the side and were hanging out. I limped back downwind to the carpark out of the straps and got launched a few times adding to my stiffening wiplash. This was a day for a 90l slalom, something I am missing at the moment. Good to catch up with all the guys as it was my first sail in 7 weeks or so.
