I feel like Ive been properly worked this morning: back stretched, shins aching, ankles wrenched, feet blistered on top from the footstraps, hands are red but intact - all the symptoms of a fully powered, challenging Hove session yesterday afternoon. It was like a skate park out there, 4.5m sail and waveboard, with ramps and bumps everywhere. Lots of chop, hence the sore ankles, but clean swell making it through from 2 foot to head high faces. Any one wave might involve a downwind carve, hit the section, crank it up wind again, roll the board round into another section coming at you from the upwind direction, hit that, back into the trough and so on. It needed to be bigger to really start breaking down the line properly, but you could spot the ones that were going to stretch and steepen up. Good for jumps too, with the slight onshore direction making it easier to go big. Excellent session.
