Windsurfing: El Medano Tenerife Wind Direction: NE Wind Stength: F4-F5 Surf / Sea State: B&J Air Temperature: 22.5 Sea Temperature: 20 Weather: sun Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Bit more wind than forecast so rigged biggest I brought 96/6m and found
easily enough wind. Nice swells to turn on. Went to harbour wall at low
tide so waves small. I tried front ridng a few times and crashed out so
followed someone in to pick up tips then thought 'blimey that looks
shallow' followed by my fin snapping off. Walked gear in across rough
rocks, ouch, derigged then lugged it back through town where I encountered
people just would not move.
Stuck 25cm fin in and continued good sail, keeping away from harbour wall
as busy. Shore seems to have unofficial separation of kiters and
windsurfers which keeps a bit on sea too, so that ' s better. Apart from
broken fin good first day and made in 3 instead of 4*.
