23rd session in 2007
Sailed at Hatchery, WA
Wind from the W (mph)
        lulls: 29
        average: 31
        gusts: 40
Rated a 10 of 10

Board: F2 Wave 259
Sail: 4.5 Gaastra Charger
Fin: Wave fin
Suit: 3/2 Shorty
Water Temperature: 65 F
Air Temperature: 90 F

first session wasn't too good. I was overpowered so came in and downhauled and outhauled the sail quite a bit more. the sail got really twitchy. all power or no power because of the flatter shape but with the steady wind it was a fantastic setup. I could go upwind and downwind, surf the swell, and just shut off the power instantly if I started to feel too much wind. the most control I've ever had in 30 mph. I didn't want to come in. later some more lulls came through but that session ranks a 10.
