TOPIC: Marina CLSA, 5.6* SSW-SW 8/11/23

Marina CLSA, 5.6* SSW-SW 8/11/23 8 months 3 weeks ago #1

Skunked!! :woohoo: Got there at 1:00pm - see Bloomington graph :dry: Caught planable puffs to get me up to The Narrows only to then just drop me. We haven't seen teaser wind like this since someone tried to catch a southwesterly at Tiscornia Beach in the late spring. Just enough to keep you there. It kept me up there for 3+ hours - never got on plane once at The Narrows. :lol: What about the 6.3? It would have only bought me 15 more minutes of planable puffs. Never got that Decatur 3:30pm wind - see graph.

Waterstart. Wind looks good. Harness lines is perfect spot from custom markings. Camera on...
