Cool... I might have time on Wednesday afternoon to get to the beach... Not 100% sure yet though.
You'll be fine on the board, you've already got the kite-flying skills so kite-mountainboarding will be easy!

www.boysstuff.co.uk
it says it comes with 8" tyres from boysstuff, so i'm hoping this is a misprint since it comes with 9" primo striker tyres from
scrub.
1" won't make that much of a difference for now anyway.
they only have one board on there, luckily it's the one I wanted. they also have a couple of symphony kites on there. nothing special
though!

The wind is still looking good for tomorrow afternoon.... I have some work to do, but should be able to manage to get to the beach for
3pm... Maybe earlier if it rains!!
Will you be around Rob?

absolutely! just checked where my board is - last tracked at shrewsbury depot - so hopefully will arrive in the morning! if it doesnt
turn up then i'll still be down the estuary getting muddy.
it wont take long to set up so if its here early i'll be down the beach middayish onwards... likewise if its not.
the ever reliable met office has changed it's forecast i see, it was giving 15mph northerly earlier on, not we've got showers and
10mph north westerly! :s
see you tomorrow!

Yeah, the forecast doesn't look so good all of a sudden.
I'll be on the sefront though not the estuary, espeically if the wind does have some westerly in it... its only worth being in the
estuary when there is some eastery in the wind (or its Force 8 plus!)
If there is enough wind, I'll park up in the Golf Course Car Park by the Ynyslas junction... right up near the dunes at the far
northern end of the car park so that we are beyond the groynes.

Well, it wasn't that good....I'll do a full write up in the diaries in a
minute, not that theres much to say.
It looks as though there is some snow on the hills though. There was quite a snow-strom at one point while I was out windsurfing
too.
Did you get out and try your new board Rob??

yep been out for about four hours, but those gusts when the snow came stopped play and caught me out one too many times!! i pulled in
to the golf course car park on the way back at about 15:45 but your van wasnt there so i gathered you werent about. in fact nobody else
had parked there, so came back.
never mind!
i may be down again tomorrow after 3. see what the winds doin first.
sounds like you didnt have much joy either....
