Kite surfing: Ynyslas Wind Direction: WSW Wind Stength: 20-25 Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Sunny Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Arrived just before 1pm and wind was around 15kts so rigged 12m and spent a
nice hour cruising around trying out my new Shinn "The Monk" board in the
sunshine. Felt really nice, light and very good upwind in the light
conditions. Bit of chinwagging on the beach and then the wind filled in
exactly as forecast, water got choppy and waves appeared and the fun really
started. Very happy with the board (thanks to powerkiteshop.co.uk for
superfast delivery). Must be a serious kiting addiction now... buying
brand new kit! Legs and thirst finally drove me in about 6ish after
another 3 hours even though there was still plenty of wind - in fact I'd
have put up a 9 by then... I also declare the official end of the drysuit
season - far too hot today and had to deliberately take a few swims to cool
down. Now NOT looking forward to a whole evening marking the degree
dissertations that didn't get marked this afternoon... but well worth it :(
