Another great sea breeze day. Warm, clear blue skies, just right in a shorty - very nice. Session didn't get off to a good start when leaving Soton and driving onto the M27 realised I had forgotten my harness....doh! Eventually got to Salterns Park at 4pm. 6.0 to start with, which was just about right for the first hour or so. Wind was always picking up though until I was completely overpowered on the 6.0. Thought about preserving my energy for another session tomorrow and calling it a day there, but then thought nah don't want to waste this wind! So changed kit to the smaller stuff. Dunno maybe the wind dropped off a bit again cos I was struggling a bit on the 5.2, so couldn't really do much, just about managed to stay upwind enough.

Pulled off 4 out of about 6 or 7 duck gybe attempts on the inside whilst on the JP/6.0.....and planed out of 2 of them!!! YES!!!! Woohoo!!!!

4 sessions in 7 days now, maybe another tomorrow, and each one in blazing sunshine. It's all a bit surreal this. Am I really in the UK?!?!?
