After missing what was forecast to be an epic weekend to go to a wedding in
Newcastle I was looking forward to the Monday I'd booked off to catch the
last of the weather. Got to the beach and Dave from Reactive was out on a
5.7 looking distinctly under powered. Wouldn't have bothered normally but
it was a nice day so why not.
Opted for the 6.2 with the big wave board to go and play in the on shore
mush. Wobbled out opposite the River Mouth where the waves were getting to
3ft but the wind was only teasing. Managed to get planing a few times and
even got a jump but it was all on apparent wind. Got very close to a push
tack on one run in so it wasn't a complete waste.
Would have been a one star if it hadn't have been for the sunshine (even
got burnt) and some snappy tacks in fluky conditions.
