 Details It was like a toddler had control of the off/on switch for the wind today. A squall would rip through, then almost no wind for 20 minutes and I just bobbed around and waited for the next squall. About an hour into the session the wind finally became a bit more steady. When gybing in bigger waves I sometimes struggle to find the sweet spot between: 1) being too high on the mast and breaching as I come down the wave, and 2) being too low on the mast and touching down or nose diving. There's a good amount of stored potential energy when you're relatively high on the mast, and this can come in handy when maneuvering through a gybe. Starting high and then slowly dropping your altitude throughout the gybe can help to power you through it. Proper altitude, or mast height, is the final step (thank God) in this convoluted 12-step gybe rehab that they sent me to after the intervention. [from Session Log on Monday January 20, 2025]
