Windsurfing: Lancing Wind Direction: WSW Wind Stength: F4-5 Surf / Sea State: Head high Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Drove through shoreham and the harbour break was off the dial! No-one at
Widewater, not even checking it. Pissing down and howling, but from the
safety of the car I could see plumes of spray, whipping offshore. Onto the
next beach where the rain soon stopped. No one there either, but the mad
wind was gone. Rigged 5m and wobbled out into the head high swell. Cross
off and breaking waaay out to sea so managed to string decent down the line
turns together every run in.
Waves were very smooth, with bags of wind on the face, actually thought it
felt more like surfing today. Had the lip breaking out over the clew a few
times. On the tiddly board, RRD Wave One small,. so I guess that explains
the nice feeling turns.
Packed in at 4:30 as the wind was getting lighter, too light to get back
upwind. There were still waves coming in but they were fading too. No
shorebreak as such.
