5th July 2014
Windsurfing: The Dip-Felixstowe Wind Direction: sw Wind Stength: 18/22 Surf / Sea State: big Air Temperature: 18 Sea Temperature: 15 Weather: cloudy then rain :( Max Speed: 24.90 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 12 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
My 5th session in a row !!! :) been a good month so far but we have lost
the sunshine today :( The forecast was wind turning sw and dropping by
lunch time so by the time I got to The Dip carpark at 10 it was pretty full
!!! but had we made the right decision coming here with sw being a bit off
- would the Fludgers or The Manor have been better ? but we decided to give
it ago here and because of the rain clouds passing over the wind was always
going to be up and down :( People were coming in and changing down to 6m,
it didn't look that windy on the water but I went with 6.4 and after a
wobbly start off the beach I hit the wind a 100m or so off the beach and
the sail was ok but the sea was very big making going fast very hard :( I
beat out about a mile and had a good reach back :) My wetsuit was tight on
my wrists restricting my grip so I had to come ashore. After a short rest I
had a few more runs before the rain came and the wind went more off and
dropped :( Everyone packed up, some headed to the Fludgers to look but it
was very up and down there too and several big black clouds coming I
decided to call it a day - not the best session :(
