After windsurfing the wind dropped a little so I went kitesurfing. By now quite a few people were out kite-surfing, including Col, Neil, Graham, Craig, Chris, Mike and a few others. At one point it was getting a little crowded with 12 people on the water... Very busy for Borth, especially in the winter.

To start with I was nicely powered up and flew upwind out beyond the waves. I had a good hour on the water nicely powered and then the wind started to drop a bit and although I was still going OK, it was becoming difficult at tomes to get upwind so I decided to call it a day. Derek was just going out as I left, and many of the others stayed out on the water. Once at home I could see a Peter Lynn Bomba above the dunes, so I prsumne that Col got it out for a fly. It seemed to be going OK.

Not a bad session, but it was a little too onshore once the wind became marginal.
