Lol I was starting to think there was a new Randy - one who is a whole lot better than me, and has much nicer gear! Lol It did sound like it was my best day ever. Fun while it lasted......

Four windfoilers 7.0- 5.5
Four Windsurfers 9.5 - 7.0 I think.
One wingfoiler 7.0 ?

Mostly overcast and misty with about 15mins of rain but turned out to be a 80% airtime day for me on my 5.5 & 1100.

Barrett got to use his new sexy RRD board and it was mucho fasto!
Gene almost pulled off a forward on his foil. Nea
New guy Haizar seems to be progressing quickly.
And I still can’t foil jibe. Dash 1

Great day of sailing. The 5pm-6:30 wind increase was great way to end a Beautiful day.

Tailwind on the flight back from El Paso. Consistent 40-50 helped us get back on schedule. Sounds like a good fall session for everyone. Glad to read all the good reports!

Just OK? The wind at Galts was ok too. Pretty much 7 most of the day, too bad I wasted part of it with 5.5......

Ok, it wasnt great and it wasnt bad, guess it was pretty good. It started with some north in it, so easy to get out the hole, On my 6.0, I had to pump sometimes but got lots of rides. I thought about rigging up to my 7.5, but didnt. During the afternoon it shifted more to the west, and got a little lighter, more pumping required. Per Roland it came back up some later in the day.

I actually enjoyed Sunday more than Saturday, although Saturday had more wind. I sailed more comfortable (control), plus the sun was shinning. Saturday had rain.

It was a really good and fun week, I was on the water 7 of 10 days. The season has begun. I'm tired.
