Windsurfing: Lancing Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: F8 Surf / Sea State: Waves Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Cloudy Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Sailed at Lancing from 6 til 7:30pm this evening. Still very windy, though
probably not as much as at lunchtime. Rigged up the 3.0m again, and it was
still fully powered up. Easy launch no shoredump, waist deep water and good
clean lines with groomed flat bits in between. Two of us out and wave
riding was the order of the day. Head high sets peeling right, plenty of
power (too much) on the wave face. Actually my crash lid was being blown
off by the wind coming up the wave face, just the strap holding it on!!
Some epic down the line. Wind eased off a bit, but was still gusting up to
full strength. Enjoyed the occasional lull to give the arms a rest. Finally
snapped the webbing off my Da Kine Nexus (2nd snapped in two weeks!!).
Sailed in half mile no harness. The End. Sore arms. Good day.
