Wolf looks decent . Rigging the 6.5 and excited for some “real” (read planing) windsurfing :)

The sensors don’t reflect it, but I’m overpowered on 6.5 :ohmy: Switching to 5.7 and that’s it. I didn’t bring anything smaller.

Greenwood would be solid 5.5-6.0 today from what I am reading at the crib, but I am in Cincy visiting my daughter who is a student athletic trainer for UCLA football team, playing tonight.

And I’m blown out of the water. It’s gusting over 30 mph and I didn’t bring my 94L nor any sails below 5.7 :( That’s what being overconfident did to me. Huge turnout-a day everyone has been waiting for. I’m taking a break now at the peak of the wind for today and will get back out as soon as it starts to drop a little bit.

And I’m done. It’s still blowing hard but I’m completely exhausted. Probably I would have been best on the 94/5.2 kit ,if I did bring it, but I didn’t. I was absolutely convinced that I wouldn’t need small gear and that was a stupid mistake I admit. Anyway I had fun blasting hard on the edge of loosing control and I crashed some jibes because of that and even came up with the phrase “ Tack for your life!” . Funny, isn’t it ;)
I believe the conditions at Wolf were somewhere between the Lansing and the Crib sensors, with the Crib gusting over 40 at tit!

Looks like a kite party at Wolf today. Nice to see that the conditions were great there as well.
