36th session in 2007
Sailed at Auckland, Coniver Grove
Wind from the W (knots)
        lulls: 6
        average: 18
        gusts: 25
Rated a 8 of 10

Board: Starboard Carve 99 2004 Wood
Sail: NP Saber 6.2 2005
Fin: Drake Freeride 320
Suit: XCel 4/3 infinity x-zip.

Again on my most used combination. Wind direction ranged from NW to SW, shifted a lot. But was a lot of wind, although never past the design limit of the sail I would say. Made some good jumps. Made many of my jibes as well, although none planing. Pretty rough chop, so practising them was hard as well.
