Private video Peeler - makes it kind of hard to accumulate views.

Did anyone sail today. Seems like the perfect day for it.

Chris foiled. Dave D. kited at Old Fed and dropped by to see the foiling action. Jim C. rigged numerous sails and may have gotten out before I was there. Gene, Crispy and I sailed 5.2s pretty wound at times. Peelskid came by to lend commentary.

Earlier in the afternoon, the wind was more W and there were better swells. Wind turned a bit to the NW which meant one had to come back through the washing machine back from Aqualand. (NW wind, W swell). Water is still very comfortable which was a good thing as my small board jibes suck and my skinny mast waterstarting skills suck even more. Low 20s to mid 30s sounds about right. Spent a lot of time sheeted out, no shortage of power most of the time. Could have done with a smaller board but having a bit of float was nice, too.

Well not as good as foiling, but I did stay dry.

I think it captures the essence of peelskid. A deep and thought provoking character study.
