Water calming

[Jordan]

An interesting story about how a little olive oil can calm a large area of water. Probably wouldn't want ski on it, but who knows...

@lovell and I will have to test this out at Jovia's Pond. It's in the middle of an olive orchard.

Would think that the activity of skiing would break up the surface layer very quickly and disassociate the olive oil partials into smaller and smaller groups with each pass. Easy for someone to try without risk to the environment and maybe good for the skin. Lol. Someone try it and report back.

Great, until your ski hits the carpet of oil! I'll need another fin adjustment.

@A_B just add 1.3333 degrees of wing angle and you should be good to go! lol
