This one is special, just for me. Should we play guess what's in the box?

We're going to get serious this year! New (2019) Infinity 76cm wing, the newest 2020 WF-1 foil/wakesurf board, and the nifty new travel case.

After a couple of of "measure once, cut once" moments, one on @BigAbe75 's thread this morning and the other one two days ago, shown in the picture below.

I managed to finish the folding steps. Well I still need to finish the epoxy and polyurethane, but the finished prototype looks like this.

I might be interested. Have some cash from a few work travels coming in. Might be able to fly this under the radar (until it shows up at home that is).

What kind of cost we talking? Sub $750?

Shelly and I are both working from home. Babysitter is closed for the day.

She's on a 2hr+ weekly call. Looks like I'll be working like this until lunch or so. Hopefully Cars3 streaming on the other screen helps the cause. Desperate times require desperate solutions.

I *think* he needs a tractor... :p
He damn near stuck a tractor, so my thought was he was trying to float over the top with the side by side & ended up with a FAIL

I see an F35 escort into Burlinton Harbor. Opening day at the Marina's in Vt. Motered the Beneteau to her Summer slip today. Only 2kts wind made for slow/no sailing.

Wife and I got away to the Hill Country. Swung by Fossil Rim Park. Really cool drive thru animal preserve. Wife stood out of sunroof and this giraffe walked right up and ate out of her hand. Crazy!!
