27th August 2016 Windsurfing: West Hove Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: F5-F6 Surf / Sea State: Small waves Air Temperature: Okay Sea Temperature: Warm Weather: Cloudy and grey Max Speed: Distance Covered: Fantastic session! It's been ages since I've had a really enjoyable sail in the waves so the fact that they were only shoulder-high at most didn't matter, nor did the lack of sun. It was one of those sessions when everything is rigged perfectly and the sail feels weightless in the hands, no matter what the wind is doing. In fact the wind was varying from virtually zero at times on the inside to big gusts on the outside, but it didn't really matter. Only a handfull of people out here, so no-one ever got in the way and you could zip between ramps and waves playing with whichever you liked. Some nice steep jump-ramps on the way out, and some occasionally big and rideable waves on the way in (much nicer that Shoreham would have been I'm sure). Despite quite a bit of blobbing around and a lot of out-of-harness stuff on the waves over the 2hrs-ish, it wasn't at all tiring on the arms (everything was sooo comfortable). I gave up due to impending cramp in the legs, though! A couple of kiters joined us in the end - one was doing some VERY smooth wave-riding which was nice to see! (I don't normally find it interesting to watch, but I did in this case...) What an excellent day - enjoyed with a couple of friends too. |
