Hadn't been windsurfing for a while, just too busy trying to earn some money. As it still blowed in the evening, and I had some time, decided to take my chances. Good enough for the big board, could plane most of the time.

Because the water was fairly flat, could practice my jibes a bit, did one or two good ones, but the sail flip was usually the point where I failed. Really need to get the mast hand close to the mast, tend to forget that.
