Windsurfing: levington Wind Direction: west Wind Stength: F4-F6 Surf / Sea State: bumpy Air Temperature: ok Sea Temperature: ok Weather: ok Max Speed: 28.3 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 3 runs (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
Big expectations for big sat - but had to work till 11 so went straight to
levington. 3 sailors out on 5.0M and the meter said 28mph F6 -
I really was only interested in some speed runs and knew the only way I
could run 30kts was on the 6.0M, not 5.0 wavy sail. The gust were just too
big for 6.0M so after hanging 30 more minutes gave up and set up a 5.4
freeride sail and the kombat 115L.
The wind dropped :) why didn't it do that when I waited? wallowed across a
couple of times, so stuck my 145L on a 5.4M, just to say I planed. Did
28.3kts on the Tabou when a big gust came through - but with the wrong
sail, wrong board, choppy water and the tide now 50Ms out it was time to
quit. Rog and the boys had a great time, so went for sauna, steam nd
jacuzzi to cheer me up - nice. If see the stars win the Arc tommorrow (Sun
4th) thats 5 times I have backed him for a monkey, so 3 *** for the sauna
and a see the stars win.
