Insane turnout-people from all over the area including the north suburbs, Wisconsin and Indiana. Wind was on and off the whole time, but the 103/5.7 did the job admirably. Had to readjust the setup including pushing the mast foot slightly back of center which seemed to benefit jibing...maybe. Just dumping the 'cool' pictures really quick and may try to stitch together a short clip the upcoming days.

Is Wolf Lake deep enough for foiling? Sorry to say, I have joined the dark side and got winging gear with a 70 cm mast. Might want to sail Wolf for my first foiling attempts.

Yep. Everyone but me and the kite was out on foils when I was there Tuesday. There are some shallow spots near the islands to the north and adjacent the launch, but there was a fleet of Polish windfoilers there. In SW breeze we had they would walk upwind towards the island and launch heading NW. One guy even had a foil mast that had to be almost a meter.
