1 Nov DCAB 13m LIIIIT to Superpowered

Self Launched a little before 1230 when Arrowhead was 29-45. Booties on the grass made for a very slippery jaunt out to the water. I'm sure I looked ridiculous. Then the fun began. Boost, land, repeat. Wind stayed pretty strong until I bailed for work at about 225. Of note was the look on Jim's face when I launched with no board. I think I heard him laughing. Seriously large air with the board back at take-off. I did it again later, but this time about 6-8 feet in the air, rag-dolling for at least 100 feet before slapping onto the water. A great way to blow a forecast with more wind than expected.
