Windsurfing: Worthing Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: F6 Surf / Sea State: Logo high waves ;-) Air Temperature: 22 Sea Temperature: Weather: Sunny Max Speed: Distance Covered:
The forecast today was overcast with a F5. I set off not knowing exactly
where I was going and taking a very strange route as I was hedging my bets.
I had thought about Hayling but then thought it might be a bit better
further east as Hayling seemed to be getting less wind than either the
Solent or the Sussex coast. So in the end I arrived at Worthing. I drove
around looking for spots, surveyed the cafe but the sea had disappeared and
saw sails out further west. Drove along the coast road and stopped by a big
greensward.
It looked windy so I rigged the 4.7 wave board combo and that was spot on.
Didn't stay out too long as I've been pushing the body recently and it was
quite hard work today (for me). Gybes in particular were very wet.
But it was great fun and some good ramps in particular. The boom slipped
down a couple of times which has a really marked effect on planing - i.e.
you don't.
More tomorrow?
