Fast and straight..... boring
No no no. Going fast doesn’t need to be straight and boring. I don’t ride long straight tacks unless I’m going site seeing or racing a friend.
The extreme upwind and downwind angles offer a lot of options, plus throwing a transition every 10-20 seconds, finding two or three buoys within 200m of each other and doing a mini course race. Do it standing, do it rodeo, work on stuff, try a lazy Susan and crash, laughing. fast fast fast.
Then slow down, put kite at 11 o’clock and relax, breathe, hop to toeside, carve a sin wave back and forth downwind through the chop moguls, with kite tensioning and luffing slightly, not too much, breathing with you... heck even a race foil can ride that little moment of chop wave here and there like a skate park.... then reach up, grab the bar, downloop gybe, throw back into the harness, wicked grin, and start again.
