Mood: waiting for wind

22nd March 2012
Stand Up Paddle Boarding: Pevensey Bay Wind Direction: Easterly Wind Stength: 0-8mph Surf / Sea State: Small waves Air Temperature: Ok Sea Temperature: Ok Weather: Dawnie bright and dry Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Another 6.00am - 7.30am SUP session in the bay.
Had hoped for windsurfing weather but the wind slept in longer than dawn
Tide was out, small waves were lapping the shore.
The orange ball was creeping upwards.
It looked like the wind might fill in a bit but given this was a Pre-work
session i didn't have time to hang about optimistically, so SUP time.
Grabbed the Evo 10'9, suited up and went for it.
The rest of the patrol wanted wind, and as such I played solo, and as they
gave up the wait the wind promptly woke up .... In fairness it didn't get
particularly windy, but it did help push in some bigger waves to play
in.
A much damper session for me, taking a couple of spills, but it was pretty
good fun, quite refreshing, and I did catch a few waves too. I even got the
hang of paddling out through the waves, admittedly not really any bigger
than maybe knee high, they added a fun dimension to this early morning
exercise session on the paddle board.
