For the virtual @molokai2oahu with @makai9hi we did a 24 mile downwind wing voyage, along the south shore of Kaua’i, in 20 knots of wind and a 3-4’ swell. I have done shorter versions of this run and had been looking forward to taking it a bit farther. The conditions lined up for a really nice afternoon on the water. Leaving at 11am, it took us 1h39m to reach our finish line and were greeted with some offshore head-high sets on the reef. We definitely took our time and even circled back upwind a couple times to get back into some really fun wave zones. A straight shot down the coast would have only been about 14 miles. Smiles and hoots the whole way! I was really stoked to do this with Makai as we always stayed in proximity and shared an awesome experience. He’s a safety conscious waterman with a great eye for drawing lines on the ocean. Am hoping he’ll sign up for next year’s crossing from Moloka’i to Oahu with me. Very grateful for my taxi driver sherpa (supporter, wife, & best friend) @meg_womble 😘… she helped drop us off at our start point, which required a short hike and then carried our pumps and bags back for us too. Additionally, she kept on eye on our voyage with a live tracking gps link @garmin Thank youuu! 🥰 I rode the @unifoil Vyper 130, Katana 830, med fuse, @kdfoilshop Marlin 14 w/1.5 shim. Powered by @ppcfoiling 3.8m Surge and 63L Soar Pro. Makai was on the Unifoil @the.progression.project 140 for the first time and loved it! He combined it w/ the Katana 950, long fuse, Shiv 13 tail & 0*shim He was powered by a 5m @ozone.wing and 70L @jimmylewisboards Can’t wait to go again!!! #virtualm2o #anythinggoes #channelaloha #downwinder #wingvoyage #kauai #hawaii #m2o #downwindchallenge #wingfoil #wingfoildaily #ppc #unifoil #pakaa #foiltheflow #rideandglide #foilfever
