Mad. mad session today.

Arrived to find it pissin down and howling a solid 30 knots+. Rigged up between the downpours to 4.5m and wave board.

Got out and played safe on the inside but started wishing I'd got the 4.0m on as I was well overpowered but stayed with it. Quite happy as its been some time since I was out in these type of conditions and I did OK, went for it landed plenty of jumps, got mullered and had a great time. Bailed out of some jumps and a bit battered on landing but all good fun and no kit damage.

Came in for a rest and thought about packing up but gave it another go early afternoon as the sun came out and the wind eased just a touch although I still read a 41 knot gust at this point. More in control this time but soon was shattered and got a BIG blister so that was it.

Should be 5 stars really but I think I need to push on now and do a bit more out there....
