Funny wind direction, this. There was practically nothing at the top of the beach, but Adrian was out looking well powered up with 5.5m. So I plumped for my 5.5m too. Mistake. Wind had picked up several notches & I felt overpowered just walking down to the water.

Got trashed around in the shorebreak & noticed a completely detached panel. Bugger.

Long walk back to rerig - 4.7m Zeta.

I dunno. Maybe I was tired from yesterday, but didn't have a great time. Really underpowered on the beach, totally overpowered on the outside - after getting over some huge swells!

Loads of horrible lulls - usually right in front of a breaking wave.

Decided to pack up about 15:30 & head for home.

Neil Bass had already left much earlier after not really getting off the beach. Phil likewise, though he'd had a slightly better time of it. And Adrian was still out there shredding when I left!
