Kite surfing: Tarifa Wind Direction: x-on Wind Stength: About 20kts Surf / Sea State: OK Air Temperature: OK Sea Temperature: OK Weather: OK Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Had a crap morning, splashing about with the Flexifoil Strike 8.0 + 5th
line, and a 155-ish long board. Got really frustrated that I couldn't do
it.
Had lunch in a sulk, then went out for the last session.
It clicked!
Got up and riding and did a couple of longish (50m) runs! One was so good,
that once I was up and riding and skimming over the waves, I thought 'What
do I do now?' before the inevitable crash. WAHEY! It felt like that whacky
out-of-control-but-immense-fun feeling you get when you first plane on a
windsurfer but don't know how to control it.
I couldn't BELIEVE it that the sesh was over so soon after I 'got' it, so
now I hve to get out in our less tropical UK conditions before I lose it
again. Stoked!
