arrived at DC@ 1:45pm to see white caps and several sailors rigging or about to. Without any hesitation, I drove down to the water"s edge to rig the 7.5 Naish. Southwick is rigging also, his 7.2 The wind was some of the most consistent and even wind I've seen at DC in sometime. I stayed up in the venturi section most the session and hardly fell off a plane the whole time. Air temp was 66-68* and water is 50+ so I was totally fine in the wet suite but didn't spend any time in the water which makes a big difference. all and all one of the better sessions. won't be many more of them this season!!!!!!!!

Like George said. Amazingly stable wind direction. Lightened up briefly toward the middle of the session, but otherwise was planorama.
