I hit Hickam today (didn't want to deal with the crowds or the low tide swim out at WPB).
The wind was either way up (nuking - to the point that a 4.0 would have been good) or lulled out to where you had to working it to stay up on foil.
Jim was there when I parked. He wanted to test his new Amundson with the Foil Drive.
Arvin, Matt (nice board) and I were the group that was out initially.
The North Mode Pro 4.8 was smack dab in the middle - good thing it likes the top end.
I spent most of the session out at Firsts. With the strong wind, I was able to get tacks both inside and outside.
I had to wait for the waves - but when they came, they were really good. I caught three head high rollers (just kept going).
I called it at 75 minutes -
Lots of people had shown up by this time. Ken, Zach, Harris, Jesse - and Arvin, Matt and Jim were all still out. I wanted to get home to work on the boards in the garage.
I really like using the Project Cedrus Aluminum 90cm mast. I barely have any ventilation issues and riding full mast height is pretty thrilling. I may bring the Clydesdale out soon to get that dialed in for downwinding.
Super fun session!
