Last day of Gruissan Speedweek. Again very gusty Marin onshore winds (10-18knt). Therefore we met at La Nautique again. Overall very well organized event with bad luck of the wind direction&strength.
I had to take again my "biggest sail", 6.3m², because I only took my small speed equipment with me, normally perfect for Tramontana. But sail was by far to small, so I had to take my old "steamer", the iSonic122, to pass the lulls. Most others went with 7-8.5m² on the water.
So I did just a few runs to test the SL-P380 under a 75cm wide board. The overall trim was extremely balanced and the fin took absolutely all loads I tried without stalling and gave the setup a very "neutral" and controlled characteristic. The drag of the wide board limited max-speeds but was still okay for its design age, the wind strength and my skills and training situation ;o)
