Just to see my lake "Soderica" near my city in North of Croatia...
Here I spend lots of time in windy (and no windy) conditions...
It is not long but is very close to my home and makes me happy...



First video is from 06.05.2010.



07.05.2010. I was on the water again, not enough wind, and then start the rain and
storm I cought 15 minutes for remember, check this one too:

i think your talking about the foot pads on the vid at 0.35 ,i did a post on the bombora dromedary last year, rather than useing the surfboard back pad's i rescessed the footstraps into the board so my foot was closer to the water,

obelix rrd have allso scooped out the deck and they talk about the scooped deck makeing the board early to plane, well ill back that up, my board has a beeper deck than the rrd ,there arent to many 80lt boards on the water that will plane as early as mine, and yes the foot cutouts work like a dream

i dont have cutaways just wingers butt my board has the same princeable , the idea is a different way to load the fin rather than lifting your heel you push, and it's comfortable and i'm sure it helps your foot from cramping, the only difference is with my board you have more control of the board when the wind picks up,obelix i don't want to hijack wkcwarriour's post ive just finnised reshapeing the tail, when ive taken it for a test run maybe ill do a post

interesting,

i think there is a bit of marketting hype there. what they mean is "Volume Distribution". personally i think it's give and take with width v thickness v outline there are other ways to achieve the same goal.

i'm with you gesty but there has to be an answer an why this board planes so well, anyway i took your advise earlyer and made it in to a pintail well sort of

Nice to have a flat water spot near your home.
Nicely done.

how long are the screws for those straps

screws are standard, maybe little longer, becouse straps are on normal height

that photo, i think this is my board, hahahaha

sometimes is gusty but on N wind, on SW is great

btw, yesterday i have PB of that home spot 26,533 knots (and lake is only 500 m across) I am very happy

Check out the yesterdays action, I was trying to make my best video so far:

And for Vid, I think Spielberg is zero for me, hahahahah

You certainly put them together faster than him
You seem to have more fun towards the end of the video as the wind picked up.
Nice little gadget , that wind speedometer.

that photo, i think this is my board, hahahaha

Yes, its' your 90. I copied it using the hyperlink you provided above.

Where do you buy new boards in Croatia?
Is it cheaper to go to Italy and buy direct from the RDD ?

here is a new one, best of me from yesterday

yes thanx, i am just in phase learning jibe, i know i have problem with oversheeted sail and i loose speed in the end in time before rigflip. i just can't do it, don't know how to hold my rig in carve moment, and i just can't pick right moment for rigflip. Jibe for the first time is not so easy as looks on mates who know jibe well.
thanx for the tip. I will try to add more extra speed before carve, and try to little back on boom back hand, try to hold sail sheeted, we will se what will happens.
Also got one more problem, so far this jibe you see i do only on the left, i've got problem to carve on the right side, i ust can't start jibe to right, what is the problem here? in my had or?
