The way to the spot is very hardcore, happy I made it in one piece. Thanks to the major for the guide-tour.

After the wind was way less then expected we all went back to the car with our JP45. Hans and Vince changed to big gear and I just changed the board. Of course this upwind/Défi combo isn't competitive on the speed course, but had my fun.

After some runs with my Z-fins SLM S 33cm, I tried a SLM S 29cm from Hans. Although this is very small for this board, the fin felt surprisingly safe and it was also faster!

Alpha@500m of 49,81km/u just 2m too wide...

I'll be back with proper speed gear to battle with the big boys.
