Very strange forecasted 10 knots woke up to about 30.
Started off south east horrible energy zapping conditions the same as kev faced first thing. It then swang a few degrees which made it bearable. An hour later it went round to s/w for a couple of runs then through to westerly!

Second boom broken in two weeks! Fortunately under warranty. First real attempt on speed kit - Started the session on wave kit but the wind swung around and dropped so rigged the simmer 6.3 and mistral 95sl.
First run beat my speed record, second run felt the boom bend, looked at it then had the biggest catapult of my short windsurfing career. The first time I have experienced the 'which way is up' feeling when stuck under the sail, started heading to the tip of the mast before I realised and came to my senses. Felt my back go though :(

No wind forecast but woke up to a force 6-7. I decided to rig up a size larger than I might normally in this wind strength and went for a 5.8.
The session started very southerly, I got a 31.94 max on my first port tack run back to the beach (my slow side). It quickly swung through SW to a W and I was then getting 30 knot averages on starboard tack at Osprey Quay.
For the first time ever I got 5 x 10 second averages over 30 knots (top 4 on starboard) resulting in a PB for 10 second averages. I finally beat my long standing previous by around 0.3 of a knot. Also got a 250 meter PB before the wind eventually died.
