Wednesday 9th November - Windsurf **** River Orwell at Levington – sunny.

Starboard Freeride 150 and a Evolution Freeride foil with a Tushingham Thunderbird 6.5.

My 100th session of the year :)

The wind just keeps on blowing so after our adventure to Essex yesterday it was back to Levington today to make the most of the good tides this week:) Arriving at the marina at 9.40 with Robert coming shortly after and with plenty of water and an OK breeze we quickly set up our foils, with the WSW wind gusting 15/19 mph I rigged 6.5 while lighter Robert went for 6m which proved aright for a couple of hours of fun in the sun despite some really big gusts coming through! With some west in it today it meant you could beat to Felixstowe docks in one if the wind was up, straight into the sunshine in smooth water, just lovely:) Got some reasonable mile times and some OK gybing but it did chop up a little as there was loads of water in the river being a extra high tide! My third session in as many days was beginning to take its toll and with the tide turned the wind went patchy so it was time to call it a day, another good session:)
More wind tomorrow but I am having a tooth out in the morning so will have a day off but hope to get out again on Friday before the wind eases.
