16th July 2011 Windsurfing: Broad Haven Wind Direction: W - SW Wind Stength: 3-4 Surf / Sea State: Wavy Air Temperature: 16C Sea Temperature: ok Weather: sunny Max Speed: Distance Covered: Over in W Wales for the weekend with Nigel P & Adrian J on the basis of an excellent wind forecast - albeit rainy. Bizarrely, although the sea was covered in whitecaps, by the time I'd rigged up my new 5.5m Rock, there was very little wind on the beach. As it was dead onshore, with some powerful waves I never got far :(. After an hour or so, I gave up, rigged up my old 6.2 & tried again. It was no better. Also, this sail's a bit too big for my 86l wave board (the biggest board I took with me). However, the wind had swung a bit further to the S; in theory making it a bit easier to get out. In practice, the wind had dropped further, there was always a wind hole where you needed to clear the last breaking wave to get out the back, and then I was back in the rinse cycle. However, the sun shone & it was a fabulous day in fantastic surroundings. We stayed at the YHA in Broad Haven - highly recommended. |
