Windsurfing: Lancing Wind Direction: WSW-W Wind Stength: F5-6 Surf / Sea State: Head high + Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Sunny Max Speed: Distance Covered:
I sailed at Lancing again today. Even bigger swell than yesterday and lots
of wind. The plumes coming off the waves were incredible and each one
peeled eastwards from somewhere upwind of the cafe down to the sailing
club. The faces were solid head high and probably more at times. It was so
windy it felt like your sail was going to tear as you pinched upwind on the
wave before waiting, waiting, waiting and then throwing it downtheline. The
sail then became light but fully powered for endless carves at full speed.
Had some right in the pocket like I was surfing, sweet.
Wind shadow was there again, but if anything it gives a bit of respite for
the riding once you are on the inside. Didnt need much on the wave today.
Rigged a 5.0m fully cranked flat!!
