Surfing: Llangenith Wind Direction: SE Wind Stength: light Surf / Sea State: 2-3 foot surf Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Sunny Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Anna and I drove to Llangenith on the Gower for the first ever
Forces-of-nature trip. A few people had pulled out of the trip as the
forecast wasn't particularly good wind-wise and a couple of others had
either gone back home or decided not to come as they were ill. We arrived
on the beach at Llangenith at around 6.30pm and found a 2-3 foot swell with
loads of people out, so I quickly got changed and in the water with my
5'10" fish and surfed until it was dark. It was nice to be surfing proper
waves again and all of a sudden surfing felt easy again. I had some pretty
good waves in nice surroundings watching the sun set.
We then headed off to the Kings Head pub in Llangenith. We met Ken there (a
windsurfer from the Midlands) and a little later Steve turned up. We had
expected Steve to get to the Gower before us, but it had taken him 5 1/2
hours to get there from Birmingham! After a nice big meal and a few drinks
it was off to bed so that we cold get up early in the morning and catch
what was supposed to be a dying swell.
