8th March 2003 Windsurfing: Hillhead Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: 25-30kts Surf / Sea State: Lumpy Air Temperature: Mild Sea Temperature: Cold Weather: Tricky Max Speed: Distance Covered: Fantastic day down at Hillhead, first time I've been powered up sub 5.0m since last October! Rigged a 4.9 Naish on my K-Bay wave and was well powered up from the start, no worries getting out even though it was very onshore. Loads of chop and swell to contend with as always but a few nice ramps were on hand for some jumping. Gybing was a bloody nightmare as the water was just so lumpy, finding a nice spot to turn was very similar to finding a needle ina haystack. Trick was to go in ridiculously over commited, bending double at the knees and ignoring the massive burst of speed that resulted with the initial bearing away. Almost pulled off a sweet laydown duck coming back on port-tack in front of the groynes but it ended (like a lot of my gybes that day) well and truly in the drink. All in all, a cracker and good to get back out in some decent wind. |
