Evening all,
So today we finally got Squid sailing, and the ear popped off and snapped the new track in 2 pieces..... Money well spent.
If the offers of Track and Balls are still available from Phil and Graham, please PM me so I can get back sailing.
For the short period we had her sailing, nice F4 fairly constant she flew up wind, very comfy and not as nose divey as expected, turning the corner was interesting, all my helming fault, kite went up smoothly and pretty quick, though fell down again.... dodgy cleat. Once settled on the run, she really took off, though a massive difference if shes flat or not.... again helming issues. A small, nearly rescued capsize later, we decided to pop up wind, and the ear exploded off and tore the track with her.... balls dropped.... water a tad chilly.
On returning to shore, Robin kindly donated me and Jamie Banshee to let us have a play, muchos grasios Robin. Banshee was fun, but I still prefer the Squid, 97 rules in that wind much more fun.
Hopefully see you on the water, once Ive got a new pair.....
Thanks
