Dawn Patrol - 4/11/2021

Dawn patrol this morning - back on the boat!  The swell was supposed to be bigger, but it wasn't.  The wind was supposed to be dead, but it wasn't (until later).  I changed out the fuselages on my 72cm mast so I could use the HS1250 (again thinking it was going to be bigger today).  Prayot had the Lift 170HA and the Armstrong HS1250 on the 85cm mast. 


Prayot has been trying to pick up a wave at Firsts, ride it out to maximize speed, then pump across the channel to Seconds to link up on another wave.  He's gotten close (yesterday) - and still keeps on trying.



I spent half the session at Seconds - hanging on the inside to pick up the reforms that the plethora of SUPers weren't riding.  Then I paddled over to Firsts.  Firsts really is the perfect foiling wave - but it is a fickle spot.



Marlon rode at Seconds - he caught several of these and a few even bigger ones.  He was exercising the Submoon to good effect.


Another 3 hour session - so much fun!!!
