There's room for one on an ambitious (L5) downwind surfing trip in Nantucket sound tomorrow. Please contact me by this evening  if interested. Prior wind-wave surfing experience expected.

Here's my pulse for the first serious downwinder in the V10 (Saturday) . Stayed upright, though.

Nice :) what is your calculated MaxHR? Does your app provide you with a HR zone breakdown as well?  Typically it’s presented as time spent in each zone.  Hey find that the more I train and dial into the downwind the more my sessions look like HIIT workouts, with a large percentage of time spent in the upper work zones and a similar amount of time in the lower recovery zones.

More importantly who joined you?  Member #2 of the South Shore Surfski Center?  :)

Calculated max HR is 165, so >148 for 90 mins is right up there. Forrest Horton and I are egging each other into downwinders. It's working out great. Agree that downwinders look just like HIIT's. 

Paddle, eat, sleep, fix body, fix boat, repeat... Life doesn't get much better.
