Wanted a "confidence" day, it had been awhile since I'd had a good time windsurfing... I frequently try to challenge myself, which is good for improving and usually means fun for me, but I'd overdone it lately so a trip to BIB for some flatwater jibes was in order. The first 15 minutes was a little hairy -- mostly I was out of practice for the speeds and handling the board, but I tweaked the rig a bit and after that it was pretty fun. Made lots of jibes... just what the doctor ordered for fun.
