Windsurfing: Ynyslas Estuary Wind Direction: E/SE Wind Stength: 15 knots Surf / Sea State: flat Air Temperature: 15 Sea Temperature: 15 Weather: Sunny Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Arrived in Borth for the Boarwsie demo. Had a quick look at the new kit
with Jules and met Al who had been out for a session in the estuary
earlier. Dave and Sarah turn up too to check out the new kit.
Bjorn Dunkerbeck was there displaying his speed kit, really small, narrow
and light stuff! Hold on Bjorn Dunkerbeck in Borth, have I been
drinking?
Any way the wind wasn't quite filling in so off to the estuary for a
session before all the water disappeared. The easterley affect of the
estuary was working and made it sailable.
The tide was going out but the wind was in the right direction to go up and
down the channel.
There were about 4 kites out having fun. 15 knots so I went for a 7.5m and
the Mistral Flow 113ltr and 40cm slalom fin. Some very nice powered up runs
felt very good, much more control than last Saturdays mad session.
Interesting sailing with the tide rushing out as the water was really
moving by the end of the session. But I was still planing full on against
the water direction so a good little session.
Then it was back to the Golf course to sail the new kit all afternoon. See
next entry for that.
