Kite buggying - boarding: Ynyslas Estuary Wind Direction: N Wind Stength: 5-12kts Surf / Sea State: na Air Temperature: 5c Sea Temperature: na Weather: sunny clear skies Max Speed: Distance Covered:
just a practice session at kiteboarding - gradually got to grips with it
and towards the end of the session i was getting some decent length tacks
back and forth, but as time went by the wind started to drop and i was
unable to regain ground upwind again. A bit disappointing towards the end
since i'd got used to it by then, but at the same time i'm chuffed i can
handle a fair gust on the board now!
perhaps some jumps next time!
quite an enjoyable afternoon really - the beach was empty - well nobody was
kiting apart from a 3 yr old with a dodgy single liner, and i was on my own
so i could be completely selfish and not share my kite!
i think i saw al on his way to the beach about 16:15 ish, somebody in a van
similar to his was heading that direction anyway! i was in two minds as to
turn round or not... but having just packed all the kit into the car i
hadn't the energy to get it all back out again!
