First windy day. I have learned so much today. This was the first time on smaller boards than 44cm, and 5,6 sails I only used a few times before. It was super easy to start, new missed on start and very easy to stop too. But I am not happy about the hole in my sail the first transport back, and not happy that I crashed in 45 knots in about 70m before the finish line, it took me 50 m before the spin stopped and the neck is stiff tonight. EN sk klotning, modell jättestor.

Anders BD told me to do another run, but I have to be careful with the neck. The sail felt a bit small today, I can probably take 10 more knots with this sail.

I am very impressed by Anders BD, he flies so smooth and fast!! I have so much to learn..

used both CA SP42 and Mistral 41 today, Loft 5,6 Proto -14 and Gasoil 21 and 20, 8 kg weight.
