Arrived to 12 kts. I was trying my iSone 111 that I got a double US box put in it. Tried uphauling right away to ensure I was able. Took a few minutes to get used to the narrower board. Definitely takes more concentration to fly smoothly than the SB foil board. iSonic is 68cm wide and the SB foil board is 76cm wide. Only 8cm difference but huge difference. As well the 14 litres less flotation was a big difference added to being more narrow made it a lot of work at times. Had some great flights and even made some gybes and possibly one fully foiling. Wind died, not enough to water start and board not floaty enough to uphaul in the waves. I was only 200-300 meters from shore so after getting tired I started swimming my gear in. The Twizz doing flybys to make sure I was okay. Thanks Twizz. Spent more time in the water today than I did all summer! Made it in and watched Twizz and Mr. N+S wing foiling in about 10 kts. Quite impressive!!
Definitely need more practice on the smaller board. Just over 31km/h top speed today and travelled 16.66kms.
