24th May 2003 Windsurfing: Daymer Bay Wind Direction: NW Wind Stength: F4 Surf / Sea State: Flat Air Temperature: Warm Sea Temperature: Cold Weather: Sun! Max Speed: Distance Covered: Post-exam holiday with course-mates: arrived at my friend's house at about 4.30pm, which is only 5 minutes from Daymer Bay. Woohoo! non-windsurfing friends who had arrived a couple of hours earlier and had been down to the beach said there were quite a few people out so excitedly rushed down to the beach to see 5 or 6 sailors planing comfortably. Again perfect wind for my new 7.4 and JP. Very easy flat water conditions which was good for re-finding my confidence. Pulled off about 50% dry wobble-gybes and a few small chop-hops. Board is great - v easy to sail - starting to get used to the best way to gybe it and can see planing exits being a possibility soon....maybe. Sail felt more comfortable. Fin still wobbly, though as I write this on the 29th I have now added a couple more washers which appears to have sorted the problem. I've decided I don't like my 2nd hand waist harness though, which I can never get tight enough and hence always rides up more than I think it should. So will try and change it soon, even though I've only used it 4 times. Best bit of the whole session: only having to semi-pack up kit at the end and drive the 5 minutes back to my friends house still in my wetsuit, then dump everything in the garden for hosing down later on. Hassle-free bliss. |
