Parawing WP-PV - Norm and I.
Wind was there, but not as steady as one would like for parawinging.
Uber high tide - very nice!
And the swell - more than I would prefer for parawinging - but oh well.
BRM Ka'a 4.8 with the current standard foil-board-mast.
The swell was bigger than it looked from the beach. And there was considerable chop in the water that made starting really difficult.
Definitely one of those days where you earn your victories.
The wind was staying in swimming lanes again today - if I got out of the lane, I dropped off foil. I had to go way outside a few times to get to the next lane (without getting bogged down by the chop).
And outside there were some sizable waves breaking - made for some puckered situations.
Norm got up twice. He got a new higher volume board so he was sorting that out. And this was only his second session out with the parawing.
Strong winds - but up and down. Not the best for parawinging.
And with all the falling I did, I lost my single point harness line. I ordered three more from Stringy - and I'm going to get some dive belt weight keepers to prevent future losses. The ocean giveth... the ocean taketh.
It is definitely tons of fun to be on a learning curve again!
