I was a bit too eager on the Sunday to get out so I stood around for a good hour or so in the cold wind with a damp wetsuit from the
day before.
Eventually got out and started of on a Tushingham 6.25 sail. Had a few runs with that and was overpowered fully sheeting out after 10
mins or so with the wind picking up, I handed over the kit to Al and went for something smaller in the anticipation it was going to be
howling as forecast. (It didn't though)
I went out on a 5.0m Tush sail and one of the Starboard 80l boards, was a good setup but there just wasn't enough wind so it was bloody
hard trynna get going and you had to wait for the gusts coming over the dunes to propel you back to the launch point. Crap wind
direction. Abandoned the idea of that one and onto some larger kit, think it was the Starboard Carve 94 or 96l, nice board and quick in
the gusts!
Again had another good day on the water and it was finished off with a hike up Cadair Idris with Rachel which kept her please after
watching me enjoy myself on the water.
The Sunday wasn't as good as the Sat but in all a wkd weekend and back into work for a rest today.
