Windsurfing: Kanaha Wind Direction: SSW Wind Stength: Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Scorchio!!! Sea Temperature: Weather: Sunny spells Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Today the big kona winds and swell arrived as forecasted. So first stop
Lanes to watch the pros strut their stuff. Lanes was solid 4.7 windy and
mast to mast+half in the sets. Bonkers.
Suitably inspired I returned to Kanaha. The swell there was nothing like
that at Lanes but still bigger than yesterday - boom to half mast. And much
windier. 4.5 was too much and the waveriding was often a struggle as a
result. I did score plenty of decent waves but a far greater amount of time
was spent swimming. :(
I haven't travelled all this way to sail bloody port tack. Tomorrow the
konas continue and possibly even stronger so I might wimp out. Trades are
forecasted to return on Saturday or Sunday - can't wait.
