Windsurfing: Ynyslas Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: 18-22 knots Surf / Sea State: 1-2 foot messy surf Air Temperature: 11ºC Sea Temperature: 10ºC Weather: Cloudy Max Speed: 26.6 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 21.9 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
Lots of wind this morning, then Impi arrived and it dropped to nothing. It
then filled back in again so we went out with 5.7m sails. The first 10
minutes were terrible, just not enough wind to get going, then all of a
sudden a gust came through and my secret weapon for the day (a 32cm fin
rather than my usual 23cm fin) paid off and I was up onto the plane and
whizzing past Impi who was still struggling!
The wind continued to fill until we were both well powered up and have a
whale of a time. Perfect conditions really, not too challenging, but plenty
of wind to get going and fly upwind and plenty of ramps for some nice
jumps.
I then snapped a harness line but luckily had brought a spare with me, so a
quick change and I was back out on the water. Impi and I had some nice fast
runs racing each other out through the choppy surf followed by some flat
out gybes out the back.
It doesn't really get much better than that, the sun even made a short
appearance and the water is warming up.
