Didn't windsurf a lot myself, just two runs with the Starboard Carve and one with the BIC Nova, more warmup runs. But I went with the kids, so that meant I spent most of the time rigging and derigging and helping them. Auke is doing pretty well, I was almost or perhaps even planing. He was ripping on the Gun Wave 3.5 and my BIC Nova. Dieuwe was alright when he didn't venture to far anymore. Just windsurf 50 metres and come back, so in case he drifted he could walk his way back up and start again. But the Starboard Start and the 1.5m sail was enough for him. AnneRose doesn't have the power yet I think, even the 1.5m sail was too much for her. She probably needs to have lessons for a couple of days when she's 10 or 11 or so.
