It was blowing 15-18 mph out of the NW with gusts as high as 28. I started with the 5M NPW and felt over powered so I switched to the 3M NPW and it was much more controllable in the higher gusts. The only problem was in the lulls it was way to small. I switched back to the 5M and although it was a hand full in the higher gusts it did much better in the lulls and the day was on. John and I had all we could handle and went home with a smile. Max speed 20.2mph, 11 miles covered with tracks.
