Windsurfing: Bigbury Wind Direction: NE Wind Stength: F4-5 Surf / Sea State: Choppy Air Temperature: 6!!! Sea Temperature: 8 Weather: Rain Max Speed: Distance Covered:
The temp reading in the car was 6 degrees, it was like february and I
wouldn't have bothered if it hadn't been for tha fact that windsurfing
opportunities are so rare for a 9 to 5 worker these days.
It was lashing down so I got changed before I rigged up. Opted for a 5.4
and big wave board and blasted into the funnelling opposite the river
mouth. Had to stop after one run with hot aches, in May!!! Went for
another and got lulled a bit so I decided to go for the volume advantage of
the Ace. Had a lot of fun with some blistering reaches across the bay.
Plenty of stops with cold hands but managed to squeeze in some 360's and
push tack attempts. Not bad for a 9 year old board.
Would have been a 5 star day but for the cold.
