Wing Foiling at Coyote Point

After checking the iwindsurf.com pro forecast, I decided to wing foil at the nearby Coyote Point. Being late August, winds are less reliable and can quickly die out.

On arrival at Coyote Point (a 45-minute drive from San Jose) via US-101, the wind was showing as 16 knots. I decided to rig my brand-new Duotone Slick SLS 5.5m wing (to provide additional thrust when the wind fades).

• Board: Naish Hover LE Carbon Ultra 95
• Foil: Armstrong HS Foil Kit 1250cm
• Wing: Duotone Slick SLS 5.5m
• Harness: Dakine Flywing (L)
• Wetsuit: Feral 4mm Backzip Large Wetsuit

I had an excellent day wing foiling. While the wind was up and down, the Duotone SLS 5.5m wing provided me enough power to get going easily. I winged for 90 minutes, reaching a maximum speed of 24 knots using the smaller 1,250 cm Armstrong front wing.
