Looks like fun Ralph. I remember doing that on a skateboard with my wind surfing gear in the 80's. The wing simplifies the setup.
It's not overhead to me!
8'8" L-41 ST and a whole pile of boards I rarely use.

Yeah this thing really gets going..
I was a little apprehensive at first with the mending wrist.
So I was trying it around 10 MPH winds.
Found some consistent pockets where the wind was smooth and stronger yesterday.
Leaning into it..carving...mile long + runs..
Some muscles are feeling it

Brave soul, Ralph.  I'd need an ambulance on standby. No-way I would leave there without at least a broken wrist. Even the few slow falls on sand I have taken seem harsh.  Gimme >3' of water.
