Windsurfing: Fludyers felixstowe Wind Direction: sw Wind Stength: F3 - F6 Surf / Sea State: moderate to rough Air Temperature: 65F Sea Temperature: Weather: ok Max Speed: no gps Distance Covered:
Tough day as offshore wind at the dip forced 6 of us to the Fludyers which
was side off. Rog Darren and Paul rocketed out on 5 and 6.5's then it
pissed down with rain as I chilled in the car the guys were ripping the
surf in the rain..didn't feel guilty so stayed in the car!
Rigged 7.5 and had a couple of runs then the wind died. Rig changes by
everyone then the wind kicked 25 mph and I was blown away on 7.5. The guys
were ripping on small sails so switch to 6.6M with my new tabou rocket 69
and it was smoking, gps would have been interesting.
Snapped a harness lines going out so more lost time, then paul broke a
boom.
All had a reasonable sail but the fludge is shit on low tide - strawberries
foot was shredded, bleeding (good job no sharks round here) and I was
trapped between 2 boulders as I dismounted, now my ankle is like a
football.
just love windsurfing
