Distance Covered:

First sail of 2005 and first since 23 December (due to family and work rather than lack of wind). Four metre weather again - excellent! Sunshine as well but cold with it - suffered severe hot aches in my hands - after the hot aches have gone my hands seem to aclimatise to the conditions and they are usually OK for the rest of the session.

Arrived a little late and holes were starting to appear in the wind, but had some well powered runs and even made a couple of gybes. Had opened up foot straps on the advice of Peter Hart's articles, and had been losing control of the board a bit with feet slipping out in jumps. This time I just pushed my feet right in and had no problems. Puts you over the board which seems strange at first after being used to a blasting stance but excellent for carving up and down the chop and managed some half decent small jumps.
