Mad dash to get there by 5.00, several regulars out + kiters on the mid tide. Wind was about F4/5 but sea was big, so rig 7.2 Hellcat / JP129 pro which was spot the first 1/2hr but the sea was getting bigger and the board was just too quick for the conditions flying over waves. I stuck the wrong fin in 44 instead of 38cm, which was causing me a lot of grief.
Great riding the waves back in but knee shattering going back out. Managed 4 clean gybes, drank the North sea on all the others!
A few changed down as the wind increased about 6.30 and on the high tide the sea was horrendous near the river buoy. Glad I had a 7.30 appointment and left early.
I think most enjoyed the sail. Would have give 5***** if it was low tide.....
