Windsurfing: Dinas Dinlle

It took a while to get used to sailing in a different location and took me a while to get my set up right,

Ive always belived to become a better sailer you must sail different locations, i dont think people realise how well they get to know there home break? even with different wind directions!
Nice 1 Al , how far is Rhossy from you?

Yep, I been getting into the 'Borth' groove a little too much lately! I think Rhosneigr must be an extra half hour to 40 minutes on from Dinas Dinlle. I was half tempted to stop off at Black Rock and see Encee and Paul B, but there was more wind the other side of the Lleyn so continued to Dinas Dinlle as planned..

Glad I made the effort to sail somewhere else though as I'm sure it all helps as far as allround ability goes, and its surprising what a difference 50 miles can make to the strength of the wind... I think Rhossy was even windier as I've heard reports of people being overpowered with 3.5m sails!!
