Windy August continues. Bank holiday weekend and in keeping with the
incredibly unseasonal weather there has been wind on each day of it.
Unfortunately I was unable to sail on Saturday or Sunday but no bother as
Monday delivered plenty. I arrived at the beach in a post-shower lull and
as the wind returned it took me a while to work out what kit was best.
Eventually I settled on the waveboard+5.2 combo and the first half-hour on
this setup was great fun. My helmet had been donned and although ramps were
sparse I did manage to bust out one half-decent loop attempt. I initiated
it really well and was just starting to rotate but then forgot to look back
grrr which resulted in a big bail but also a big grin on my face! :)
Annoyingly I was then unable to find any more loopable ramps as a result of
the rising tide which soon turned the water state into a corrugated
waveless mess. I perserved with the chop bothering for a while but soon got
bored so quits were called earlier than normal given the persiting solid
breeze.
