Magic day!!! In the beginning of the day it was super strong and choppy gusting up to 60 kts. Waited til the wind dropped a little bit and settled. Angle got better, water got flatter. The first test run was already 47,5 kts. average. For the second run I took more lead and did the 50 kts.! Super stoked!!! Crashed on the upwind turn in the finish and ripped the sail. Took almost 1 hour to fix it more or less. 3rd run again a 48, but the weight vest ripped totally in the finish ... so again a break to organize a spare one (many thanks to Pierre!). After that the wind had already dropped a lot, best conditions were gone. Enjoyed it and did 2 more runs in the sunset.
Many thanks for all the great support to "Team Patrik"!
Congratulation to all riders for their records and PR's!
