First hour with a BRM. 2.9, with a Dragonfly 95. The struggle is real, but it is so much fun to learn something new. Well done Greg @ Boardriding Maui.
To be totally honest, that was my second session. The first one was 10 min, with too weak wind. Got going, made 2 jibes, and then the wind died. Did not try to fly it on land before going in ![]()
I fell in quite a few times, mostly because I had never used this huge 1270 cm2 front wing in so much chop.
The upwind angles were not that great, but these will improve with practice I guess, I hope
. First track is with a BRM 2.9, and the second one I made right after, just for a comparison, with a 3.0 wing, 750 cm2 front wing and a 60 L board. Quite a big difference I’d say, in the same wind as in the video clip below.
