Yeehaa, I picked good weather again and took a day off mid week.
Arrived to find it blowing a solid F6-7 and Al changing up to a 5.0m. So I
rigged up my 5.0m and wave board.
The wind was almost straight onshore and the tide was getting quite high so
it was a case of heading down towards the estuary to keep away from the
groynes.
At first I found it ok going out but tricky coming backup trying to dodge
the waves and keep planing. Had some good runs today and quite a few dives
but not much swimming as I was playing safe. Also had a few jumps, no
points for style yet but managed to sail away from some ok.
Al packed up and headed off to work and after a rest I headed back out.
Managed one really long run where I made it down to near the estuary and
found some nice areas of flatish water between the waves. Eventually got
taken down but landed in my depth on a sand bank. The waves were a bit mean
there and the currrents going all over the place but after three attempts I
got back out and made another long run back in.
Excellent session.
