Mood: wheres the wind?
|
19th April 2003
Windsurfing: Ynyslas estuary Wind Direction: NE Wind Stength: 15 -35 knots Surf / Sea State: wind chop Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Arrived at the beach went and stomped on some virgin sandunes while
waiting for the wind and tide to fill in
Al went out on a 6.3 so I started rigging the same, some of us don't sail
every day so it takes us longer to rig than others. Time I was ready to hit
the water I tried to walk down the beach with kit and found it almost
impossible as the wind strength had increased so struggled back up the
beach.
Rigged a 5.3 mc wave (smallest I have) and hit the water was really over
powered most of the time infact all the time I think before the gust came
through. Didn't sail for long as was so over powered sometimes was just
too scary to hook in, went for a couple of gybes but was real crash and
burn stuff!
would of been 4 stars but needed smaller kit.
