Windsurfing: Levington Wind Direction: se Wind Stength: 10/20 Surf / Sea State: smooth Air Temperature: 12 Sea Temperature: 13 Weather: cloudy Max Speed: 27.86 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 7.55 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
With a good wind forecast I took the gear for a ride :) looking firstly at
the Dip which looked good with the kiters having fun in the waves but
decided against the choppy open sea with my cut hand from last weekend and
my elbow still not right went to see if I could find some flatter water at
Levington.I got there at midday and the tide was still low and the wind sse
18 to 30 mph !!! I wanted to try my new lightweight zantos and rigged the
7m,sadly this was never enough in the gusty light winds although I did pick
up a couple of gusts and was surprised to make nearly 28 knots !!! I then
tried my isonic 135 with 8.5 but the wind was even lighter not helped by
the wind with tide which is a shame as the water was fairly smooth.It's
starting to look like we will never get any good wind over in Suffolk again
:(
