Boards mag FSW+waveboard test trip 10-17 August. After no sailing yesterday
there was relief all round when the wind filled in around midday to a solid
F5+. Started with 6.3 but soon changed down to 5.8 and then had a solid
couple of hours of powered up chop bothering. No waves to speak of but some
good jumping and just great to be out in the sunshine in boardies and rashy
only. I tried 5 boards during the session and my favourite was the RRD FSW
by a mile - so comfy, lively, nippy and superb to gybe.
After a great lunch at "Cafe M" overlooking the bay we tried again with
FSWs and 5.8s but the wind had dropped to gusty rubbish so quits was called
by all apart from Mungo...whose persistance was rewarded with a late blow
for a solid sunset blast. A shame as always to miss the wind but with
plenty more forecast for the rest of the week bovvered was I not.
