Wind Journal for Berend de Boer -- Saturday September 17, 2005 -- See All

11th session in 2005
Sailed at Auckland, Coniver Grove
Wind from the W (knots)
        average: 14
Rated a 9 of 10

Board: BIC Nova
Sail: NP Saber 7.2 2005
Suit: XCel 4/3 infinity x-zip.

First brought only my Carve, but there wasn't any wind. When I left we had 15 knots gusting to 35 or so according to internet windmeters. So far for reliability.

So I went back and got the big board and big sails. Had a good time. My jibes are not yet consistent, but it's improving. Hit a couple after another. I still stop just before the sail flip, but who knows. Just keep working on it.
