Wednesday 11 2 22 morning call

Hookipa yesterday morning.


Kane De Wilde gave my new foil setup a good test yesterday at Kanaha. Here he's coming in for a tune up while his dad Ivo foils out. Mom foils too, it's one of the many Maui foiling families. He loved my setup btw, he hit 33mph with his 6m in pretty light wind.
