5th July 2010 Kite surfing: Ynyslas Wind Direction: W-WNW Wind Stength: 12-19 Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Max Speed: Distance Covered: What a day ! Left work at lunchtime and arrived at Ynyslas an hour before high tide. Wind wasnt quite as much as I'd hoped (about 10ish) Neap tides so enough sand for the landboard. Spent a couple of hours ripping up the sand with just the odd dog walker and a nice looking couple of sunbathers on the shingle. Sand was a bit soft in lots of places so not the best but then the wind picked up as the tide started falling. I'd noticed that nearer the estuary the wind seemed just a bit stronger and the surf was smaller with some quite wide area of flat frothy stuff. Went back for the kiteboard and almost started walking down the the flatter water but it looked about a mile away and didn't fancy the walk flying the kite so decided to try an experiment and set off on the landboard with kiteboard under arm. Worked a treat and I was there in no time :) Once in the water things were better than I expected and managed to get planing on the board most of the time with no probs - second real session in the water so very pleased - and in no time I'd found myself boarding right back to the carpark dodging along the edges of surf and picking my spot to ride over them. Best was that I could do it both ways all the way along the dunes. As the tide fell the `big' surf got much closer to the beach and I was starting to have a harder time. Went back to the car for a snack... continued... |
