Anyone out Tuesday?

If the W/WSW wind kicks in for Tuesday I might go for a mid week session from the golf course.

Any one else around?

Didn't get out int he end yesterday. The wind did fill in a few times but I didn't feel up to it really.

Looking good at the mo though. 20-25 knots NW at the mo. I should have time this afternoon as well so I'll see you on the beach if the wind holds.

Nice sail today Andy.... Sorry I disappeared without saying goodbye but after a couple of hours this cold I've had got the better of me and I ran out of energy so thought the best thing to do was pack up and go home. You were still quite a way downwind so I didn't walk down to say goodbye.

I was nicely powered most of the time (although it did drop off a bit towards the end) and had a good sail just cruising about in the sunshine.

Hope you managed to get a good sail intoo.

Hey Al,

Yes I noticed it was getting on a bit and I was stuck downwind! When I did get back in I packed up and shot off anyway to beat the rush hour!

Managed a few decent runs across the estuary but never really felt happy on that kit in the waves. Don't know if it was the foot strap positions or just that bigger freeride kit really, but it just didn't feel right.

I'd have been much happier on my wave board but not quite enough wind for it. Still a good work out in the shore break and nice weather!

Cheers,

Andy
