Kite surfing: ynyslas Wind Direction: w Wind Stength: 30 to 40 knts Surf / Sea State: rough/big Air Temperature: ok Sea Temperature: warm Weather: mixed Max Speed: Distance Covered:
as Al has mentioned earlier, doesn't get much better than this!!
wind and more wind, put up a wind meter and it touching F7 30mph plus with
killer gusts, went out on the 10m T5 and it tried to kill me, fully
depowered on the edge and it landed in the water with a jemmed safety, just
too much wind,,
So came in and couldn't decide if a 9 or 5.5 would be good choice, i went
5.5 i thought for a laugh and go down to borth to play in the huge
waves..
best choice for the day spent four hours blatting around, most of the other
kiters were sensibly helping each other on 9's and they were a bit too much
by the looks of things,
fantastic wave riding and derek came down on his little naish (6m) i think,
we had a cracking time in the huge swells, i did the borth lagoon run about
three times, and as stated by an onlooker in borth who was standing next to
my wife..
.....Bloody hell he's shifting.......
top day
anybody got some new knees please, prefably 2011 depowerable ones
