Super-powered up downwind run - weight fully forward at times to counteract foil lift from speed boosts flying down 1.5m windswells.
Mark tried to take me out at 1.45

Stoked with the 5m 2022 Simmer Blacktip Legacy - lightweight, super-controllable power delivery, no leach flutter even overpowered

SSW 18-22 knots, PTM 830 (1080cm2)

Nice closing speed with the other rider !. Yikes

.

Summer ramping up here, so boat wake bumps everywhere. Turbulent propwash gets crazy.

Cheers...but harsh judging

GoPro 10 - hydrophobic lens and image stabilization are epic.
I record at 1080 (slow computer) - can film up to 5.3K which would look amazing,
