Good Weekend???

Looks from the diaries as if quite a few people have had a good weekend. I was at the Naish Demo Day at Weston-Super-Mare. Unfortunately there was very little wind on the Saturday, so only a few people went out. MartinF managed to get going briefly with a 9.4m sail and a couple of guys were kite-surfing in the gusts.

Sunday was much better though, Cross-Shore to start with with most people out on 5m sails, then it swung cross-on later. There wasn't huge amounts of demo kit, so most people were out on their own kit, but I did have a go on a Naish Supercross board which was nice. Fast and smooth is how I'd describe it, it jumped OK too.

Good to finally meet a few more F-O-N members as well and most of them are looking forward to coming to Borth in a couple of weeks time.

I've just driven back and its blowing quite well out there still and looks set to stay windy for the next couple of days... Think I'll have a day off of the water tomorrow though as the only time I could fit a sail in is first thing in the morning and my wetsuit is still soaking wet and stuffed in a bag in my van. I'm sure the rest will do me good.
