The new Naish Speedboard seems to perform really well. It's perfectly balanced in the strongest gusts. The wind was wild in the gusts and to get up to the highest speeds we had to bear off to the open sea resulting in some pretty wild rides. Opening up the saiol and trying to slow down was scary shit, more scary than the actual run itself. As long as you stay powered the board tracks regardless of the chop. The 4,6 is a beautifull sail with a pronounced belly that makes it very stable on the hands.
Really gusty conditions, so impossible to go fast over a longer distance with a small sail. today the conditions seem the same like yesterday and I will try and use the 5,0 to get up to higher speeds in the less windy patches. The fighting game with big sails is more something for the very heavy guys though so I don't think that will be a big help, but I will give it a try away.
