You get to put some miles on your new bug yet?

I was at SLP today. parked down by the poles where your not s'posed to drive past and the condo's. Foggy all day, but still some good wind. Poles to the water tower and back all afternoon with very few people on the beach. Speeds in the mid to upper 30mph range with a 16M Scorp.

What do you do with your foils?
