Windsurfing: Pevensey Bay Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: marginal ! Surf / Sea State: flat Air Temperature: fine Sea Temperature: fine Weather: fine Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Cheeky short session at Pevensey as it was sort of 'en-route' back from a
visit to 4boards .... I had to return the loaned Hyper-X and collect my
repaired Manta plus a nice new replacement Nik Baker 40cm slalom fin, plus
a nice Windsurfing Hawaii Carbon boom to replace one that was showing it's
age after yesterdays outing (it was 5 yrs old and been well used !).
Rude not to re-aquaint Manta with the 7.0m GTX and fit with new fin and
boom for a quick spin. No-one out, Stu (kiter) sat on a groyne having
walked it upwind to the carpark so he could do a downwinder back to his
home beach (he had a 10m up and it wasn't enough ... he drifted downwind
and launched his 18m instead)
Marginal session, planed a bit going out but was on and off ... coming back
in could use waves to get going & to go through lulls ... wasn't a great
session all in all, but nice to have my Manta back
Gerry Anderson did the repair and a fine job he did too . He's based real
close to Hayling .... his no is 02392 413413 .... should your boards need
such attention at some time, or you can drop boards into 4boards and
they'll drop it over to him and collect when it's done for you.
