Just no fun today... Too much wind, way to powerfull. After complete survival to get to the starting point, I decided it was just too much for me. Waterstarting was impossible because of the board going airborne constantly. $0$0 $0 $0When I finally got going in the direction of the sandbar I got a little crazy and decided to go for it. Entering the run wasn't even that hard. Pulled the sail shut, didn't go too close to the bank as the water was still high, and enjoyed the somewhat under control ride. Almost crashed while stopping, but managed to stop safely. When I got off the board all my energy was drained. The cold water, the sick pull from the wind, the focus, I felt completely wasted.$0 $0$0 $0 $0After a minute or so, when I had the energy to look at the GPS, I got some power back... 80+!!! Yeah!!! Nice. This made the session kind of worth it. The walk back was hell though. Thanks Erik, for the last meters. $0 $0$0 $0 $0And Peter, respect for trying more runs, shame it was so cold and just too hard.  $0
