"Do you think we can turn this into a freestyle move? It looks like I could just unhook, throw the sail upwind, let it spin under me as I'm flying, land on the other side of the board and sail away clew first, lee side."

Rig in the parking lot near the lighthouse; there's a trail through the woods off the north circle turnaround; launch outside (north) of the breaker wall, or inside if it's NW-N and want some flat water to play in. No rocks to worry about, until you get near the point well N of the breakers - gets dangerous up that way.
