Personally, I've developed a phobia to crab traps. I think it's properly called a Cancrorum-captionem phobia according to google translate.
I would advice avoiding them while foiling if possible. Water is still dripping out of my board.
I get Cancrorum-captionem phobia when we go to Charleston

Stay downwind of the little floaty things
Usually do but in this case hidden by the sail and longboarder I was sailing above only to be discovered halfway through the jibe. The black spray paint on it didn't help. Well, at least John Jordan had a good laugh...
Blaming others is always a great defense. When foiling in any form perhaps the forward tip of the fuselage would be a good position for the GoPro with direct feed to the pilot
At Kelly Park on Sunday 6/6/21 there were two wingfoilers scooping up heavy grass/weeds that made me think of mid 19th century Kansas sodbusters and yet they were still smiling when they came ashore
Who made up that word? Jules Verne would have loved it
Hey Pat
How’s the wind in Late July early August there?
Get any decent thermals?

Meanwhile in Cocoa, taken the last few days
I am not ready for a semi windless summer on Lanier.
Starting to itch for a road trip to someplace with at least a seabreeze.
Maybe can convince some of the Atlanta and Augusta group to go.
Where is Jacques Beach, Florida?

Looking at the video - maybe over the causeway from Kelly Park near the circular loop to the cruise ships. Look at 1:45-6. We need someone from CSI:Cocoa Beach to ENHANCE, ENHANCE and pick out the street signs reflected in the car windshields.
Say the word!

From his post on seabreeze
He's just moved there so his terminology may be different than those of us who've been there more over the years. Originally an Englishman living in TX.
And this part that should be like an arrow through Langdon's achy foiling heart:

I hope we get some flight time Friday....
The I99 has proven it can fly thru all kinds of wind and surface conditions but it sure would be nice to have some 13g14 with waves that are NOT 1 foot apart and coming from all directions.
