10th June 2010 Windsurfing: Ynsylas Wind Direction: NE Wind Stength: 30 - 5 knots Surf / Sea State: Flat Air Temperature: 15ºC Sea Temperature: 15ºC Weather: Sunny Max Speed: 28 knots (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: When Morgan and I got to the estuary the wind was in the 30-35 knot range with gusts to 40 knots. The speed channel was looking perfect. I rigged my 5.2m North Warp sail and thought I’d start with the bigger 80 litre board and then change down to the smaller speed needle if all felt good Anna rushed home from work for me and was on the beach by 5.20pm so that I could hand over baby-sitting duties to her a get on the water. I Jumped on and all felt fine. There is always a little bit of apprehension when going out on new kit, especially kit so different from that which I normally sail, but it all felt fine. Straight onto the plane, I headed upwind to the speed channel, beared away onto a speed run, taking it easy just getting used to the kit. Halfway along, the wind dropped. Grrrrrr!!!!!!! I didn’t even make it to the end of the speed channel before it dropped so much that I fell in backwards and had trouble water-starting. I got going again and had one or two more goes, but there just wasn’t enough wind. The wind then dropped off to nothing at all so that was the end of that. |
