Thurs, Fri & Sat looking good.
Forecast looks good at the moment for the next few days... 25-30 knots most of the time and SW.
Think I'll give it a miss today and earn some brownie points and hopefully recover from my cold and sa myself for the next few days.
See you all on the water.

Yep. I'll be out.... Probably from Ynyslas end so that I can just walk across. Tides are pretty big and high tide is around 10am so
I'll plan to get to the beach around 11am if that suits everyone else. The water should be off the pebbles by then.... The wind looks
good all day so hopefully there won't be too much of a rush anyway. It could be a big day as the swell looks pretty good too.
Steve... You might manage that Forward Loop attempt before the end of the year after all!!!

Yep... Golf Course Car Park and there is a height restriction (2.1m I think).... You could always park a little further down the road
and walk across as I will be.
Good to see you are the first to get your excuse in as far as the forwards are concerned... I'm sure you won't be the only one with an
excuse, I can already feel a little twinge in my back!

Well I for one had a good Fri & Sat with the some of the massif coming over to boost the low Dyfi numbers.
Now found out why my kite inverted mid run Fri. has a split front to back in the LE!
Must admit my last sail of the year on Sat was a bit of a full on gusty one but fun.
See you all in the new year and have a good one.

Tut tut guys, you windsurfers still going on about forward loops. Just do it, its only a spin in the air!
Just try not so powered, off some small chop, and hold on tight.
I find its far more scary to do one with a kite, get it wrong, down loop your kite and get punished. With a windsurfer if it goes wrong
you can just let go and its over.
I'm not windsurfing much these days, but I can still nail em off smalll chop on the lake.
