Dawn patrolled this morning before I had to leave to take Noe to music and pick Marlon up from the airport. I used the same front foil as yesterday - NL160, but changed the mast over to the 29.5". There was still some energy in the water so I could stay on the outside - this was definitely the better call.
The first wave I caught was a little rocky - takeoff wasn't as nutty as with the shorter mast, but I think I need to play with the positioning again (I don't know why I keep having to do this... I guess body weight and surf conditions have more of an influence than I originally thought - or this foil is at the critical balance point). Historically, it takes me a few waves to get acclimated to a change in configuration.
After that first one, the rest of the waves were long and I got in a bunch of turns.
Kalani was out - he is getting better. He said pumping was harder than before.
Andrew was out - he catches so many waves on the SUP foil. Noel was out also picking off the really good waves.
I ran into Roland as I was leaving (8:30). Fun session!
