Ripping it up in Avon

A buddy of mine (the friends you meet at windfoiling events!) shared this with me. He's up in Avon, OBX. Using a 5.8/97L/32.5cm setup in 25-30 kts of wind. Yeah, the water is flat but as anyone who's tried to crack even 30 mph can tell you, it starts to get scary at those speeds.

fwiw, that would get you a ticket in the old days driving through small SC towns on the way to Myrtle Beach. Lol (40.3 mph)

Also, congrats to Stephen Janes who clocked a peak of 38.6mph in Ocracoke last week. He and Christophe could have some fun together!

Future 101. 5.0 sail. Can’t remember the wind speed. 38.6mph is wild!

My best was set on its big brother, a 5.7. Dang that was a good quiver. Still have a couple of the small sizes in the garage.

Well done. Love the pic!

Re: Ripping it up in Avon

Let me check this weekend what's actually there. Likely for sale cheap - I've got newer stuff now in that size range.
