9th March 2003 Windsurfing: Brogborough Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: 25-30 mph gust 40 Surf / Sea State: wind chop Air Temperature: 13 Sea Temperature: 6 Weather: cloudy sunny spells Max Speed: Distance Covered: Had a brilliant day ! didn't wimp out today, Was first time Ive sailed small board (small for me anyway 112lt) I know its not small for most people here but its a big step from my 283 techno a drop of nearly 40 lts. The wind was realy strong today was over powered when the wind got up on 5.3 but thats the smallest sail i own so had to use it Can feel a shopping trip coming on soon. The smaller board is so much quicker than the bigger one was a bit scary at times would have liked the wind to be a bit less to ease me into it gently but I guess it wouldn't of been so easy to get going. Water starting was so much easier on the smaller board. Managed just the one big caterpult came down on the board a bit heavy lucky was wearing boyancy aid so that took all the force out of it. Had a good blast back and forth didn't go for any gybes I was just stoked that I was on the smaller board didn't want to push things too much If I was a better sailer this would have been five stars! |
