mmmmm.. if the forcast still looks the same by Friday - I might be tempted out of retirement for a cheeky session on saturday. Low
tide at 2:30 though, so might make a leisurely start mid afternoon.

Tides are quite big as well for the weekend.. Might have to have a speed session with the GPS on the falling tide mid morning.

Hope to get friday off work but if my gaffer aint avin it, I'll be up friday night.
Last time I was at Ynyslas, the fences were gone bar from a small enclosure near to the centre. No issues with the kitesurfing though.
When you're close to the EDGE....Trust your INSTINCT....!

Me too... Loads of wind, loads of sun, but loads of work to do and annoying things to sort out.
Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Nice out there today. 30 knots of wind and gorgeous sunshine on the seafront and not a soul in sight... Managed to clock a top speed of
35.8 knots as well beating my previous best of 34.5 knots... Yeeha!

Thats because there's never anyone here... I'm almost always out on the water on my own.
If I had a cable to connect my eTrex to my computer I'd be able to prove it though!
