Windsurfing: Shoreham Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: F6-F7 Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Max Speed: Distance Covered:
A session that nearly didn't happen as I hadn't taken my 4.0m with me...
Luckily I was kindly lent a 4.1m which was pretty ideal for most of the
(fairly short) session.
Finally got a chance to swap between my old Acid 70 and new Evo 74 in 4m
weather and couldn't believe how different they were. I think the
conclusion is that I might as well get rid of the Acid. It's much more
comfortable/smooth in high winds, but the Evo is just so much more fun, so
I think that tips the balance.
The main highlight of the session though was a pretty good forward-loop
attempt (my best so far), resulting in a strangely slow-feeling but really
FUN rotation and a soft landing for a change! Unfortunately not landed
properly as I was kind of stuck under the sail and certainly couldn't sail
away, but everything was pointing in the right direction ready for a quick
waterstart. Nearly there...
[Four stars because of the fun-factor, but it should probably only have
three]
