Wingfoil – Downwinder in Cape Town

The wingfoil sessions are adding up now and we have had a good amount of windy days in Cape Town over the last weeks. Getting more comfortable getting in and out of the water in bigger surf and using the smaller board. Dylan who has been my downwind partner and is a very skilled surf foiler, has picked up wingfoiling quick and he´s the one you see in the shots passing by me a few times. Conditions were very good. We had an average wind of 23 knots some hours before the downwinder, which made for some good rolling chops. The wind dropped a little during the run, but still holding 21 knots average and gusting close to 30 knots.
