Sunday was more overcast and darker than Saturday. So, the images needed a lot more touching up in Photoshop and it shows. How about wind and sun next time? Has happened a lot over the years of the event, just not always.

Jumping without footstraps, what keeps rider and board together? Inertia and a fair amount of skill.
