I woke up and figured I should get a session in before the wind picked up and the crowds thickened. Marlon wanted to sleep in so I went solo. The tide was a the small high at 0.5'. There was a slight breeze on the water and the swell was down a tad from yesterday - still rideable, but I sat further inside to make sure I didn't lose any opportunities. I caught a bunch and they were all long. On most rides I was also able to carve some big rebounding turns (change direction 180). And to add to the goodness of this session, I was able to pump back out three times (one of which was a botched 2 for 1). The GL180 has made a big difference in my foiling.
Somewhere along the session I got a reef poke on my left foot. I didn't think anything of it and kept on foiling. I checked on the poke during a lull and it seemed as if some skin got sliced off. It didn't seem to be bleeding so I stayed out. I kept checking on it and at some point it looked like it was bleeding - I took the next wave in. I cleaned it up when I got home - it didn't look too bad. I hope this bill is paid up for a bit.
