Dawn Patrol - Thanksgiving 2024

The morning crew was all present this Thanksgiving morning - Andrew, Dean, Noel, Kamaka, Dennis, Matt (long time no see), Scott, Sam and others I haven't met.

Waves were small again.  But there was no wind and the tide was decently high.


Same setup as usual with the exception of the rear stabilizer.  I'm letting Erik try out the SF900 and the Skinny 365/55.  I bolted on the P350.  I really couldn't tell much difference in drag or speed - but that's more likely from the lack of energy in the waves.


The first half on my session had very little battery consumption - glassy conditions and the decent tide helped in this regard.


Then the waves started to back down - had to use more battery to get on the smaller waves.


I'll call this 24 rides in the almost 2 hours session.


Tomorrow will be more of the same - but the forecast is calling for some wind - I may FD in the morning and parawing (try to) in the afternoon.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
