Boardwise demo day (Sunday).

Mad conditions, arrived to find them trying to slalom race in 30+ knots and very choppy conditions. Tried a few runs on a 4.5m and wave board but I was well overpowered and with the chop it wasn't fun. Managed a few runs but decided to just watch the racing.

In between the racing most people seemed to be on 3.3m's maybe I should think about getting one and a decent 4.0m as well ;-)

After the afternoon racing when the tide had dropped I went back in and had a decent time, although still well overpowered it was ok given the flatter water.

Could have been a lot better with a little less wind, and less gusty.
