Last session of our La Franqui trip.
We almost went home because there was hardly any wind, but we waited for a while and I started rigging my 6.2 with JP54. Jacq wanted to wait a litter longer and asked to give a sign when i was doing runs over 70. Well this was the case after the 2nd run so Jacq started rigging as well.
Target was do get another 40kn session and that happened pretty fast on the JP. I'm really in love with this board, so easy going fast.
The wind kept increasing so I switched to the Missile, 5.5 might have been faster but stayed with the 6.2. Tried some Alpha's, finally getting used to gybing on this small board even in the chop. Unfortunately I broke (again) a batten when I fell during a gybe. So I called it a day after this.
The trip was amazing, thanks for the call Jacques. We had 4 great days of surfing and I had a lot of PR's.
