Sunshine on the moon

(6.3 + FW)+(5.5 + FW) = (130')+(30') = 180'

Three full hours of sailing! For a short while I had the chance to premiere my new SF 5.5 - sweet! The SF is a forgettable sail. Silent. Gybes as if on anabolic steroids, in a positive sense?!
Got some solid time on my new CF 6.3. My bet is that the sail would perfrom way better on a 460 mast instead of the 430 I used yesterday. I had a horizontal wrinkle just above the lowest batten. It performed pretty good despite this.
BUT, when is the rest of the windsurfing world gonna realize what most seems to have missed? How can people stand the agony af using the traditional extensions?????????????????
I've used Norths POWER.XT extensions for four years now and I'm never going back!!!!!!
Such a chore being forced to sit and rig AND most importantly it's a full on rigging job to trim the downhaul.

I mean that the POWER.XT extension is the best invention since the clamp on boom!

Go buy one yourself...

The last half hour last evening was beautiful with a golden lake due to the sun slowly travelling towards the horizon. Going back in you had an equally beautiful moon kissed by the sun. One of those moments.
