What a day!!

What a day...windsurfing, speed loop training, kitesurfing and surfing all in one day in perfect conditions all at the same beach...Fantastic.

Full details in the diary section of this site as usual.

Did anyone else get out??..If so, where and what was it like?

Nope...I didn't see the seals. I'm sure I saw a few beched whales on the sand though...usually turning a nice shade of red behind a wind-break!!

From the reports I've heard from elsewhere around the country it sounds as though we got the best of it as well, as not many others seemed to get much wind.

lovely,

18 gusting 25mph of very warm wind. Some insane speed runs clocking 50mph in the buggys on Hoylake. Managed to get the whole buggy very airborne jumping the sand banks.

big grins all round

Steve
