Windsurfing: w-s-m Wind Direction: west Wind Stength: 18-22 Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Max Speed: Distance Covered:
after work session just whats required got in about 6ish as the tide was a
bigun had about 45 min sailing untill a moron under a kite sailed into me
and holed the board.
I was on starboard he was on port he had no idea of rights of way and didnt
care that my board was holed just carried on kitting .After I had slapped
on some bodge so I could sail then came in after missing 40 mins he had
packed up and left . The board only costs £1k but its not his so should he
care obviously not
there was about 6 of them all launching where all the windsurfers were ,at
times blocking the launch area idiots
when the first guys started and untill summer last year they all used to
launch from the posts about 1/2 mile up wind great loads of seperation no
prob on the water once off the beach there is loads of room
now they launch and rig/blow up the kites between parked cars ,where joe
public drive up and down ,little Jimmie runs around with his siblings then
get the hump when people drive over lines
is it just here?, are the kiters getting thoughtless or is it that there
are brain dead morons getting into the sport so many guys have been killed
or severly injured doing this new sport I and many others do not want to
be caught up in somebodys kitemare keep clear
you good kiters take note I love seeing you do your stuff but if you dont
get it sorted out very quick you will be banned and unfortuately you are
loosing support from windsurfers you go not need to lose any support
anyway rant over but please kitters THINK about your actions and be
proactive
