My first speed session, under the wings of Martin van Meurs. Obviously it's quite a luxery to have him as a coach and to be able to start off on such good material! I have been invited to the Fuerteventura Speed Grand Prix and Martin gave me some good advice today. The wind was good to start with, no need for 45 knots gusts in my case. After a couple of nice runs my arms felt like they used to feel when I just started windsurfing! Strand Horst is a brilliant spot for speed sailing, nice and flat, loads of people with little yellow plastic machines on their arm too, haha. The GPS makes it really exciting, I really wanted to beat my maximum speed over and over again and am really pleased with the max speed I got in the end (and getting fanatic already cause I should have done more good 10 sec runs!).

Thank you Martin for your help, hope you have a good session today!
