A perfect Xmas day session. I met Shem on the beach, and it felt like 5.7m
weather, but our wind-meters were only reading around 15-18 knots, so I
rigged my big boardand big sail while Shem set up his 12m kite.
Once on the water, the conditions and my kit were just perfect. Loads of
really nice steep ramps, perfectly powered up and a nice direction that
allowed for some good jumps on the way out and some really nice backside
wave-rides on the way in. Shem was a little overpowered and didn't stay out
long, but I stayed out for a couple of hours. The jumping was good, the
wave rides and little backside aerials were good, but the best moves were
the flat out gybes on the wave faces out the back. There were some lovely
steep head-high waves out the back allowing me to bank around on them and
come flying out of my gybes twice as quick as I went into them.
It would have been a five star session, but the wind dropped off a little
towards the end, and I finally had to wobble back in. I was also a little
bit too hot out there at times with my various layers of neoprene!
