13th December 2003 Windsurfing: Saunton Wind Direction: W Wind Stength: 14-18 knots Surf / Sea State: 2-3 foot messy surf Air Temperature: 10ºC Sea Temperature: 12ºC Weather: Cloudy Max Speed: Distance Covered: The original plan was to meet Martin at Minehead at about 10am, so I arrived there and then had a phone call from Martin who was running late and still on the M5... There wasn't much wind at Minehead, and what there was had some Southerly in it, so there was a change of plan as we all headed to Saunton. I've always liked Exmoor, so it wasn't too bad driving up over Porlock Hill through Lynmouth and up alongside the in flood and impressive looking River Lyn and then on across Exmoor to Saunton. I arrived at pretty much the same time as the others, but there wasn't quite enough wind, so we had a coffee and a chat, before eventually rigging 6m(ish) sails and heading out. By now the wind had picked up a little and there was about 10 people out kite-surfing, some of whom were pretty good and pulling off big back loops, spins , board-offs and dead-men. There wasn't quite enough wind for us, so we bobbled about looking for gusts, then pumped like mad for brief moments on the plane.... Not good. Luckily it did pick up a little later and Martin and I had half an hour nicely powered up, so did eventually manage a few decent runs along with some jumps and gybes. |
