Windsurfing: Shoreham Wind Direction: SSW Wind Stength: Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Overcast Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Lucked in with the windiest afternoon of the week being my Wednesday pm off
work plus reasonable tide times so had a decent long sail 2-4.30pm. With no
groundswell to speak of the first hour was "Shoreham at its worst"...
mid-tide choppy as hell even on the inside and basically not much fun. So
after half-an-hour of crappy lump-bumping I took a long break to wait for
the tide to drop a bit more.
On re-launching conditions had improved and for the last hour I had to
change down to the waveboard as the wind steadily increased. This was the
best part of the session - proper powered up waveboard sailing with the
occasional decent jump and plenty of big flat gaps on the inside for fast
gybing. The waves were a bit crap but beggars can't be choosers, 2 hours of
solid 5.2 weather, a good session.
