Kite surfing: Ynyslas Wind Direction: WSW Wind Stength: 20-30 Surf / Sea State: White! Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: partly sunny Max Speed: Distance Covered:
No wind for a while but today was worth the wait :) Out on the water just
before 9am on the 9m XBow. Just about manageable initially but some of the
gusts were heading towards `hanging on' territory. After about an hour the
sun came out wind moderated a bit and smoothed out... Perfect.
Perfect...Perfect. Big swell and lots of white water everywhere to add to
the fun. Sand had moved around a lot and various sandbars appeared as the
tide dropped (got stuck in a 'lagoon' when a wave receded after leaving it
a bit late to gybe on one occasion!). Forced in for a sandwich at 12 and
then back out for another hour. By then the sea had moderated and tide was
low so lots of fast passes dodging in front of breaking waves all the way
back in- and each wave was breaking along the entire length of the beach
today. Not that I'm greedy but I hope it stays good for the weekend cos I
have 9am and 4pm lectures to give tomorrow so not much chance of getting
out...
Just noticed I was caught (very briefly) briefly on camera - at the
beginning of Als video, the only kiter out yesterday.
Excellent conditions....
