Had a great session on my 5.0. Some locals gave me the low-down on the site - thanks Bryan and David. Perfect place to launch from. The wind was pretty dirty on the inside but - wham! going like crazy on the outside. Got in two tacks and had to do some adjusting on the harness lines to give my arms a bit of a break. I walked up wind for a while and tried water starts from the beach. After a dozen failures I needed some speed so went out for a quick run. As usual, I bailed on the outside and took a crazy launch over the end of the mast. Perhaps a little overpowered? Conveniently my gear was in the perfect setup for waterstarting so I gave it a go. Pulled the gear in, got my leg up and I was up! No cheating in the middle of the strait! Now I just have to figure out how to do it again:D
