Went for an afternoon windsurf at Marazion, I decided to rig my 5.4 NR and take the Naish board out to play in the shorebreak. It worked out pretty well, there were a few lulls in the wind, but it was mostly good, there were some quite steep faces on the waves close in so it was good for jumping, although I still need to work on my landings. I managed to surprise myself with the board again, it just turns so quickly on a wave, I tried to gybe on a nice green wave, unfortuantly I pressed the rail to hard and suddenly found the board planning back down the wave face with me in a switch foot stance and the rig clew first. For a split second it must have looked really good, unfortuantly I wasn't good enough to take control and ended up doing some more swimming.
