Windsurfing: Shoreham Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: Session time = 1.30-4pm Surf / Sea State: LT@2pm Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Sunny spells Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Mmmm windy weekend and good tides. In the search for more loop ramps I
sailed Shoreham after first checking out a very crappy looking onshore
Hove. Shoreham was cross slightly on, stacked 4.5 windy and ramp-tastic.
Loop attempts today were well into double figures again and I felt like I
made some more progress. For the first time on a couple of attempts I
landed with the board pointing in the right direction with my back foot
still in the strap but in spite of my efforts I couldn't quite get the rig
to fly for a quick waterstart away. Some of the rotations I'm getting now
feel great. (although I'm willing to accept they probably still look crap
from the beach...)
To end the session I took Steve's Evo 80 for a spin...and I'm now it's
proud owner. Hoping it will be the tool for the job of 5.3-5.8 big
groundswell days at Gwithian etc and abroad.
Forecast for tomorrow suggests more of the same. :)
