Luverly!!! Pretty hectic out there with a 4.5m and my little JP Wave board.
I was the first out on the water with the tide a little too high. The
others were pretty hesistant about going out because of the conditions but
once they saw me blasting around out there started rigging up.
It wasn't easy out there early on with some pretty big waves and bumpy
conditions but I was having a whale of a time. Well powered up and having
fun. Simon and Andy joined me after a while but struggled to get out and
ended up downwind after a few rinsings each time.
Then Simon managed to smash his head somehow and came wandering up the
beach a little dazed and disorientated covered in blood. A quick look and
it was obvious he was going to need stitches so I sent him off to our house
with my Dad (who was on the beach watching) whilst I secured his kit and
then headed across to the house as well.
After a little first aid, some photos and the odd bit of poking and
prodding by the whole family Anna took him to casualty at Bronglais whilst
I went back out for a few more runs.
I had a good sail and Andy was getting on a little better when I left the
beach.
Once back at home Anna and Simon returned from casualty where Simon had had
3 stitches and a couple of steri-strips to keep his head together. He
looked a little better by now as well.
A great day on the sea and a bit of excitement too.
Just got back from a walk along the beach and the waves have gone but the
wind still isn't to bad.
I'll post some photos on my Weblog
later.
