Kite surfing: Ynyslas estuary Wind Direction: E Wind Stength: 18-25 knots Surf / Sea State: flat Air Temperature: hot! Sea Temperature: warm Weather: sun Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Bit of a shock to be woken by the alarm at 5:30 on a weekend, but outside
the estuary was at its best. Sun just rising over the hills, a lot of low
clouds hugging the peaks that was flowing down into the valley and deep
blue sky everywhere.
Pumped up the 12m to the sound of Shem snoring in the next van, hardly a
soul about. Went out a bit overpowered, but smooth wind, warm water and
just one windsurfer for company. There followed an excellent session,
perhaps the best ever in the estuary, cruising around in the most beautiful
surroundings, catching some serious air and lots of powered but lazy
tricks.
After an hour or so was joined by Shem, then a couple of other kites. Got
some mental speed runs in the flat water in the lee of the sandbanks.
Stayed out for a couple of hours, coming off at 9:00 for breakfast, before
a day of extreme lounging.
If there was a 6 star rating this would by it!
Could have been the same on Sunday, but sadly a late night in the Vic and a
delicate head stopped play :(
