5th February 2017
Windsurfing: El Medano, Tenerife Wind Direction: NE and ENE Wind Stength: F4 and F5 Surf / Sea State: chop and swell Air Temperature: 22 Sea Temperature: 19 Weather: sun Max Speed: 23.8/2secs (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 34.5 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
Not as busy on the weekend as expected after recent poor wind. Out bit
after 11am on 95l and 6m and shortie playing with fin combinations: 25cm
would not get upwind well enough; 25cm + thrusters was too much fin, and
21.5cm with thrusters worked best. Had a lunch break just after 1pm as wind
died and wind turned a bit more E (medium F4).
Wind came back after 2pm and sailed until just after 4pm with 4/3 suit.
Harbour wall had consistent wind as it turned a bit patchy in afternoon.
Waves small and messed with chop at low tide. I tried a few turns and made
some progress.
Tried some sunglasses on the water but they misted with sun cream on the
inside somehow.
Tired and just about 4*
