Just like clockwork, the final possible start passed and soon after the 6 pm evening breeze arrived. Not enough time for anymore racing!

Hello Steve, not bad at all your result, congrats! Windsurfing conditions can be quite fickle, and a lot of chance is involved. Liked the pics. Happy windsurfing this Fall.
Hi, you are not very heavy guy but have three sizes of NS for racing: 11.8, 11.0 and 10.0. Wojtek uses two 10.7. Is it true that F2 VI needs 11.8 to be fast in light wind even for 75-80 kg sailors? What minimal set of sails would you recomend for 75-80kg guy on VI and on Z? Thank you in advance.
Your sail quiver depends on how much wind you feel comfortable sailing your sails with. Some guys can get away with 2 sails but they need to have alot of range. At minimum I would recommend a 10.0 and 11.8 for the Z and VI boards, You could fine tune your fin selection even more with a light, medium and high wind fins to cover the gap when you are at the top of the wind range for your sails.
