Sunday 2 4 24 morning call

Kaa yesterday. Derek Hamasaki in the air and I'm happy to see that Annette (on the right) adopted the side hook and one hand holding technique I showed her to reduce the twist of the body on the toe side reaches (also shown in this video). I was surprised to see that Derek uses it too. I hope more wingers will start using it, so that their visits to their hip doctors will diminish. Twisting your upper body for long time is not good.

Mostly N to NE energy of different periods at the buoys. Home guess for Hookipa is around head and a half to double overhead and blown out by the strong easterlies on tap for the day.
