Windsurfing: Felixstowe Fludyers Wind Direction: WSW Wind Stength: 20-24kts Surf / Sea State: Flat chop swell Air Temperature: cool Sea Temperature: warm Weather: cool Max Speed: 25.68 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 7.1 Nm (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
Nice evening session with Mark and Maker.
Wind was swinging slightly off but mainly cross/off.
Rigged 7.7 Hellcat with 146L and yep way over on first run, should 6.5M.
Just cant get things right, couldn't bear off or gybe, so switch to the
120L and a little better was still too big. Found some swell/waves to play
coming in, but couldn't duck them going out as couldn't / daren't bear off,
so at bit bumpy at times.
Every time I relaxed to just enjoy the swell either Maker or Mark tried to
burn me up, screwing my attempts to chill!
Just cant have them muppets with their £50 EBay gear walk all over the JP
pro and take the pee! Sheeting hard in rough water is very tiring, but kept
them at bay though tired much too quick.
Sea was nice, but 6.5 / 120 would have been perfect. Session weren't long
even as had to rest a couple of times.
The autumn feel is def here and needed a long sauna session to get the
blood back up.
