13th July 2009 Windsurfing: Camber Sands - Little Maui Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: 20mph + Surf / Sea State: camber stylee Air Temperature: warm enuf Sea Temperature: fine Weather: Sunny with some fluffy clouds Max Speed: Distance Covered: Quality session at Little Maui. Big up Rob the Coastguard there, he's doing us a massive favour letting us sail there .... Massive mention to Ocean Motion ... you lot rocked up without permission to sail there, then promptly sailed in the swimming area. There were complaints and you could well end up getting all the local windsurfers banned from the beach. A little bit of common sense, ie the learners could have sailed at Rye lake just down the road. The rest of you could have made the effort to contact the coast guard office to pre-warn them of your plans, that way they would have ensure you knew the concessionary situation, and the rules of where you can and cannot windsurf. Other than the time spent trying to smooth over a fraught situation, it was a classic Camber session ... f*cking great. Went 5.9m Duke on the Hawk 123 which pretty instantly became too big as wind filled in as if by magic sea breeze power. I'd walked it all over so wasn't about to do a U-turn without sailing for a bit and had probvably half an hour properly stacked before conceeding the need for a changedown hike. Went 5.3m Ego on the New Wave Twin 84 although I was tempted to go 4.7m .... worked pretty well and had a great time jumping on the way out and backside riding on the way in. Adding a little spice, I stuck the ATC3K helmet cam on for the craic .... got plenty of footage, and some even worth watching, so will take some time out later in the week to do some editing ..... Quality session ..... though if muppets continue to try and ruin our access rights, there might see a rise in localism similar to surf spots. Officially, as of today, and thanks to the less considerate windsurfers, access to Las Dunas & Little Maui is restricted. Details will be posted on www.surfkraft.com in due course explaining the situation. Common sense .... if you have any, please use it !! |
