Still ached abit from Friday at Southend - that walk carrying slalom kit is a killer !!! so was pleased for a day off yesterday but wind again today :) Had breakfast at the Dip/Felixstowe and watched several others arrive and rig,and I have broken both my booms in a week so had to borrow one - cheers Neil :) I was in no hurry as the sea was huge with a bad shore break and you needed a fairly big board and sail to get going in the onshore wind.So rig the floaty F2 and 6.6 and had great fun in the big sea with nearly proper waves at kiter beach !!! It was nice to sail slowly and just enjoy the conditions.There were loads of kiters and windsurfers out having fun shame about the cloudy/wet day :(
F2 Wizzard with Ezzy infinity 6.6.

After swimming 50 yards out picked up wind which after a couple of runs strengthened to nicely powered. Lovely rolling surf over by Golf and stronger wind, so 400-500m runs most of the time with lots of gybes. Good rides down faces. Came back to try a head camera for about half an hour but wind was starting to drop and sea getting messy and smaller so packed in after a best sail for ages.
