Nice high tide today - with some doable wind. There were waves and they were at the not intimidating level.
I setup the same board-foil combo. This time I brought the Maliko 5.1
Norm brought his FD setup and his Pocket Rocket 5.0 - the first to try this combo at WP.
Once I got up, I had a great time!
It did take a bit longer than I would have preferred to get up onto foil. There seemed to be slightly more wind and it was more consistent. I was able to complete all my jibes without too much drama. I really didn't try exceptionally hard, but I think if it did I could have held my line.
Had three periods where the wind lulled out below my foiling threshold. But those periods are good for practicing takeoffs.
These readings from the Kalaeloa Airport wind meter are consistently off by 5mph.
A little more than half the session on foil with the PW!
If the wind is up again tomorrow, I think I may bring the FD setup and also the Ka'a 3.6
