29th August 2010 Windsurfing: Ynyslas Wind Direction: NW-NNW Wind Stength: 20/30 knts Surf / Sea State: 3-4 ft 2-3ft Air Temperature: 15C Sea Temperature: 16C Weather: cloudy - sunny Max Speed: Distance Covered: Hadn't been out in quite a while and to start with it was a bit much with some meaty waves I kept dropping speed on the way out and took a few rinsings. Al was having fun and covered a fair few miles dissappearing between the swell. Simon got taken down and then hit on the forehead, probably by the fin, and came out with a nice deep cut that needed a few stitches. Al recovered his kit back to his van then it was back into the water. I was still struggling to keep planing all the way out and trashed my old 5m sail, it was due to die of old age so I need to go shopping. So now I had to rig my 4.5m and luckily the wind changed to NNW, the sun came out, and the waves flattened off a bit. Now it was much easier to get out and I had a good blast out the back, still a little underpowered and after not being out for months I soon got very tired and had to come in. In hindsight I should have waited for the afternoon and not battled with the bigger waves in the morning! Took my GoPro camera out in the waves for the first time and I think it was a decent test which it survived really well. |
