What a different day to yesterday. Wind was rocking the van at 8.30 and
it had been raining. A couple of kites were out but didn't want to get
stuck landing with a highish high tide at 10 so decided to have a leisurely
Full English and wait. Finally had enough waiting about mid day and went
out on the 9m although it did seem a bit blustery. Sea was big out back
(breakers way over my head in places) after 2 windy days but actually quite
smooth (wind flattened the chop that was there yesterday) but a good
challenge none the less. Nasty gusts at times too... Eventually several
others came out on 7m kites. Would have done the same too but didn't have
one - 7m kites at the end of July didn't compute (especially considering I
didn't even remember to bring a board yesterday :) Eventually it started
raining and decided several hours in those conditions was plenty enough.
Well timed because having packed up the rain was pelting down and
horizontal. Most people decided the best of the weekend had been had and
the vans gradually departed.
