Thermals kicked in around 1pm and stuck around until 4:30pm. The direction was pretty much onshore - the one direction that really doesn't work well for windsports. Mix that in with surfers in the lineup and that's a recipe for a lot of stink eye.
Instead of heading out right away, I helped La with some things around the house, while I waited for the wind to drop off.
And I actually didn't feel like Foil Drive-ing (and setting up the system).
I opted to surf!
And I figured it would be a good day to get a real feel for the Tappy Quads.
I caught a couple of handful of waves - three pretty good ones and the rest were shorter two maneuver rides.
These fins were sublime - they worked, but didn't really standout and scream at you. There held when they needed to, and released when you wanted them to. But that's pretty much anything Japanese right? They perform and do what they are supposed to without being flashy or dramatic.
These are a good fun alternative to the myriad of twin fin sets I've been using. I think the next fin setup I use will be the Tappy Twins with and without the Tappy Trailer.
It's really good to mix things up every now and then.
