2nd October 2006 Windsurfing: Shoreham Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Overcast/rain :( Max Speed: Distance Covered: I'd blagged this monday morning off work on the strength of the forecast at the end of last week which had started calling for possible cross-shore, big swell and sunshine. Well two out of three ain't bad, but the persistant long squalls and showers that messed up the wind made for a very frustrating session. It was a case of get on the water quick between the showers but once there conditions for Shoreham were actually pretty good (relatively speaking...). The swell from yesterday had persisted, resulting in some fair sized ramps that with the much more cross-shore wind than yesterday were very rideable. Amazingly for Shoreham, proper-powered-up-all-the-way-round-frontside-turning-on-a-small-trad was actually possible today, and highlight of the sesssion was a particularly good dtl bottom-and-top on one half-decent boom-higher that shaped up nicely for me. Sail size: a lull after a shower when I arrived meant I started off on the 5.2 which soon became way too big. So changed to the 4.5 with the crap downhauled out of it which left me still maxed out but reasonably in control. So, good waves, but all in all not a great session due to the lack of time I actually spent on the water thanks to the squalls/showers. Frustratingly the sun was just starting to come out as I was leaving at 1pm to go back to work... |
