Still have a lot to learn, but this session I finally felt a glimpse of what it means to ride (fly) the fin. Some of my highest speeds in fairly tame wind for a 6.5. The wind meter is on land so add and additional 5-10 mph for on water speeds. I was out around 5pm

Is the speedo on the video in MPH or Knots?

The speedo on the video is MPH. The syncing of the fit file and the video are probably not perfect either

Figured out how to put the speedo on the render in knots. My fastest day ever.

Welcome to the over 30 knots club!

That is a nice flattish spot, where is it, Palo Alto? I have never been able to do any better than 2" 36 at the Stick (probably a GPS hiccup), it is choppy there!
