Kite surfing: Ynyslas Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: 18-30 Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: squally overcast Max Speed: Distance Covered:
First time out since end Nov ! Went with 12m Xbow but should have gone
with the 9m cos it strengthened (and started raining). Just about
manageable though. First 15mins was real hard work - arms and legs just
wouldn't work. South west wind was a bit gusty and meant going across the
breaking swell. Got my sea legs back after a while though and things
improved. Went out back past the white water and had some fun. Just about
thinking that I'd had a good session (considering the long break - been
abroad for 4 of the past 8 weeks - conspiring with the snow and ice...) and
the left pair of lines snapped causing a death spiral. Well probably one
snapped and the other went in sympathy. Luckily was close to the shore...
Oh well those lines had seen a lot of use, and were second hand ! time to
invest in a nice shiny new set me thinks ;)
