Got to Crissy at 4:15. Rigged the usual 7.7.

I was way OP at times. The chop from the ebb did not help. A couple of
times I got sooo close to a 30mph launch over the handle bars.

I finally got dialed into my new Mike's Lab flapper. It works much
better without booties. So much more sensitivity without booties.
These boards do not have pads. So you just have to be real sensitive.

My first day on the board, I thought jibing was next to impossible on
it. Now, I am totally dialed on jibing it. Tacking is really easy,
with so much width.

Speed and upwind ability are unreal.

The chop is pretty darn scary on such a big board.

It was still blowing at dark.

For sale:
5.3 '96 Sailworks Revloution Pro, good condition, $150
