It looks like a decent day for some blasting at the Wall! Can't be very picky this Summer.

Like so many times this Summer the wind yesterday was less then what was in the forecast. It came late at 2:30 pm and I launched with a 6.5 which was too optimistic. It still worked for a while although grinding upwind to the flat was out of question. Then it wasnt enough to plane no mather what and I had to come in and change to a 7.5 . That was the right setup and geting it to plane was effortless just by bearing of a bit, hooked in. I sow a at least a couple of sails up there in the flat corner-I guess the Chech or the Polish team , or some mix of them launched from the Steelworkers park after work. Sailed till 6:00 and then headed to watch Warcraft on 3D with my wife- we were fans of the game years ago after all. It was cool!
