Windsurfing: Ynyslas Estuary Wind Direction: NE Wind Stength: 30-20 knots Surf / Sea State: Flat Air Temperature: 20ºC Sea Temperature: 12ºC Weather: Sunny Max Speed: 27.4 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 33.2 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
A lovely early morning session in the estuary. Started off well powered
with a flatly rigged 5.6 and my Naish Hybrid Freewave. Some nice seed runs
in the channel, but nothing too fast as that board just isn't particularly
fast.
As the tide filled in the wind eased quite a bit but I was still OK on that
kit as a few kiters and another windsurfer (Nigel) joined me. The wind
continued to ease once the others got on the water and I was soon forced to
change u to a bigger board. Still able to cruise nicely around the estuary
though.
Had a few attempts at Duck Gybes, carving 360's and body drags. Made the
duck gybes, got close to a 360 and got wet during the body drags! Good fun
though and gorgeous weather.
