Finally speed conditions in our own country, we have much quicker spots than La Franqui;-), our season only starts a little bit late this year.

What a great feeling to have a flat course, get a gust and to slingshot yourself into the chop......and to see 88,71 topspeed on the GPS dial. Finally a member of the 47 knots club....
Antoine mentioned he can do 100km/h on the JP Speed 45, if i can do 88,71 in these conditions, he can do 100 if he is on the right place at the right time with the right fins;-)

Tomorrow wind again and this weekend back to France for the open belgium speedweek.

Surprize!!! as hans would say. $06.2 was a little big today but it was fun today . The wind was a little square for it to be amazing but still fast times . Happy with the proformance of the sails boards and the new fin I sailed for the first time today.$0 $0

Wegens verplichtingen s'ochtends even een uurtje het water op gegaan. Ik wilde even de voetbanden afstellen van de JP 54 Speed omdat Gruissan voor de deur staat en ik nog nooit op dit board gevaren heb. De 7.0 was aan de ruime kant toen ik moest stoppen. De beste wind gemist.

It has been a great day with a super stupid final decision not to go out to the sandbank at the end of the day. In all of my speedsurfing life I've never seen a speedspot looking as great as the sandbank south of the harbour spot. The tide didn't seem to drop enough for the banks to be fully exposed and one hour before low I called it a day. I obviously don't know the spot just yet.  Sorry for this Mattias.

It was hailing like crazy and a big foggy cloud coevered the speedspot for a while so I didn't dare to go for it, but anyway, the harbour spot looks nice as well and it proved to be a valuable new Dutch speedspot with Sotherly winds.

It's nice to finally meet Mattias and it was good to have a sail together. It's funny to realize just how many friends you make in this crazy internet sport.
