Windsurfing: Plan Dieu lac - Laragne - S France Wind Direction: NW Wind Stength: 20 - 35 knots Surf / Sea State: flat Air Temperature: 27C Sea Temperature: 20C Weather: Sunshine Max Speed: Distance Covered:
Day blown out for Hang gliding so ideal for windsurfing. On the water for a good 3 hours. Absolutely mental gusts coming through, some
in excess of 35 knots so I got catapulted quite a few times. Was brilliant fun trynna hang on when the gusts came through. I was coming
in after 1 tack for a rest and a massive gust came through as I was half way across the lake, it just got stronger and stronger
increasing my speed until it was getting out of hand I was fast approching the shoreline so I promptly let go. While I bounced across
the water like a water skier falling over, the whole rig took of gaining 3 metres or so in the air and flying downwind a good 15
metres. Brilliant fun but absolutely knackered, arms are coming out of there sockets
