Distance Covered:

Forecast didn\'t deliver as I went down with just 1 board and sails 5.0,5.5,6.1. What a mistake - maybe a 6.6 and a bigger board and it would have been better.

Still was planing in both straps for about an hour so wasn\'t all bad. The lulls were the killer as spent lots of time slogging up to my ankles not having too much fun.

Still, it\'s all experience and better than going to work. Took out the head cam for a bit but looking at the footage, I still don\'t have it setup right ;-(

Here's some footage ...
