Sailed in a different spot at Shoreham where the beach angle is more west facing in the hope of better waves and something new. I rigged a 4.5m. It was probably a little underpowered (comfortable!), but my 5m now has a hole in it! And actually I had a very nice session, and there were pretty decent ramps and waves coming through. Probably 2-3 foot and steepening up here and there for wave rides. A bigger sail would have allowed easier connection of the sections, but at least it was clean and lining up. I got a lot of rides in, including one sweet lip bash where the tail slid out and I was actually planing along the wave face fin first, before hooking it in and swivelling round. It was the same place I had been catching big waves on Monday, so definately has potential for when there's more wind and swell.
