Looks like you had a lot of fun with a reasonably uneventful run.

[@ForbesRichard]

We did for sure. Those squalls were unbelievable !

If you flip a surf ski can you remount in these conditions? Whenever I see people using them they look like they have almost no primary stability. How's the secondary?

[@ForbesRichard]

hi Tim, so generally the manufacturers have 4 levels of ski from the beginner (1: most stable and slowest) to the elite (4: least stable and fastest). In this video I am in a level 2 ski. In this I am confident of being able to remount in virtually any conditions. In the video referenced below I was in a level 3 ski and only just managed to remount in very challenging conditions: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qITFiqp_gJlpfK8
