Who's out weekend 5th & 6th April
Just looking at what the weekend has to offer. If thing's stay the same I recon L********* will be working well. Low tide is about 1.45
saturday and the wind direction is NNW. If my memory serves me well, that's about the right formula for a cracking wave session.
What d massif up to?? well the info I have received is that they are mainly occupied....Kitefish in Turkey...Loxley and Bluebeard in
the Alps... Col nursing a ligament (Gutted for yer man) and Spooks with tendinitis (If thats the correct term!!) So anyone else gonna
be sailin?? could be epic..although looking at Sunday, I may pack my snowboard!
When you're close to the EDGE....Trust your INSTINCT....!

Yep, about 5-600 yds down from the caravan site should be Ideal for kitesurfing. A few of us were there the other weak and had a
crackin sail in a NNWesterly. Think that the reef break that your thinking about will be slightly cross off for the wave to be working
for the surfers. I'm not into Kitesurfing in any kind of off shore winds. Just know how gusty it can de at borth in that wind
direction.

Haven't been out for weeks & never been as far up as the Cemetry area. Think I'll give it a try too.
Boys never grow up.........their toys just get more expensive !!

Will anybody be flying at the Cemetry on Sunday. I've been there a few times only to be the only one there and as i don't like to fly
on my own i ended up driving around to join the lads at Borth.
