Bit of a disapointment. I hardly ever get to ride a 5.5, so I was expecting faster speeds. The wind was all over the place but the main problem was the chop. The tide was a bit higher than predicted and there was virtually no swell so there was no protection at all from the reef. It was a very bumpy ride with no clean runs. I tried to get 5 good runs in but it was impossible and eventually with a rising tide I gave up.
I just noticed that this is the fastest average session this year so not all is lost!
