It was lunchtime and I was hungry, but there was a breeze and who knows how long that would last. So I went for a short session with my 8.1 m^2 sail and got 6 whole planing runs (that's Central PA lake sailing!). I attempted one planing jibe and made it dry.

This gust came up when I was approaching the southern shore of the lake, so I was able to quickly tack and go for a ride back across the lake.
Except at the end I hit a lull so abruptly I just fell backwards. Tack to Catch the Gust from whvdb on Vimeo. |
