Put your tracks here if your squiggles excite you


4 km upwind and small bumps on the way back down. Only got wet twice getting over excited on backwinded rides

A magic session with Mr Keen at Byron Bay in a NWer. We launched through the surf at Main Beach and worked out way up to The Pass. The starboard tack wave riding down the break was epic.

Definitely no fancy jibe tracks, but this was a fun day. Went 3 miles in fantastic side/off conditions with a small group and visited an island I had never been too before. 7.0 and 900 wing and the downwind leg coming back was a perfect casual cruising angle over flat water.

I'm jealous of you guys with big water. With our lake 40' low, I gotta jibe every 39 seconds . This is 51 miles with a total linear length of 3 miles.

Not my tracks (my wife's):


This is winging in Cabarete. I've spent a couple of hundred sessions since then trying to improve my skills to make similar tracks, but with rather limited success.

More kanaha. Been fun to dabble with HA wings for free ride. Generally not a fan, except for flagged out downwind swell gliding

Bit of a beat upwind in marginal winds but then you get to play in the swell as it comes in through the heads. Also, once the hard upwind work has been done and you're finished with the swell the downwind ride home is a blast

Stretchy, your 10 second speeds here?

Definitely went nuts with the white crayon
Dave gets 5 stars for utilising the area

Oh yeah, helter skelter... 20-25 knots and 1.5m short period bay swell. Bit of claret from the foot kicking the stab in waterstart and a bruise on thigh (no idea how) but still buzzing the day after

maybe 2-3 feet but a few times I lucked into some monster ground swell. I would go back looking for a repeat but they were unpredictable

Love riding the rollercoasters, leaning forward to keep the foil in the water.

@2keen, nice tracks!! Those rides back downhill must have sweet
@Taavi, 100km on foil is a big session. How long were you on the water?

With a pretty slow foil, so 4 hours, including a quick pit stop, refueling : )
