Very windy day, at the begining, wind was square, but around 12h, he turn to the north and spot became very choppy with big rolling chop

around 16h the wind leave the spot and turn NE, end of the day (when Jean Marc is ready to go !!!)

Thank Anthony for the board, is very good, but condition not the best for try 

Another one of those frustrating la franqui days when the wind is up and down and then you start to make good runs and then the conditions become choppy and no wind! pb max speed though so not all bad..

I went on the water when the wind became less violent. This was too late as the wind started  turning North and rolling chop came on the course.

Congrats with your new PB Damien.

Congrats, Damien. Everytime fast......, Anthony come on...next will be better

one word,damien: BRAVO!!!!!

very,very disappointed to be not there this morning,I hate working !!!!

What a day... Started way overpowerd together with Anthony. My 4.7 was way too big (or me too light). Anthony was fighting as well, but he had at least some +40 runs dialed in already !! Respect man !! Later on the wind picked up even more and we took a break. Alot of speedies waiting for better conditions. Damien went on the water and was flying very fast. Congratz Damien !!

After a while wind dropped a bit but chop was building up now. My 4.7 was ok then, but it doesn't match at all with a 51 wide board (i had by far the largest board and was probably the lightest surfer untill Koen arrived). The sail feels really unstable and the board was flying in all directions.

Changed my fin to see if this woud help, but i couldn't even waterstart anymore. Wind dropped from 50 to 15-20 kts in only 15 min.

Later I had some fun on my slalom board with almost the same speeds as on my speedboard with side shore conditions. Did 13 kms only on speedboard.

Lesson learned for today. If I can't use my 5.6, I shouldn't even try..

La Franqui: not my thing for the moment... Hopefully tomorrow morning better???

Koentje, daar kunde toch niet voor sukkelen 't is maar ongeveer 1200 km enkele trip. :)

ha ha eindelijk eens wat commentaar van Koentje ... ik denk dat ik nog beter gedaan heb als jij in het Koemmeke in de winter met 4 km ofzo ... ja er zijn zo van die dagen dat het too much is no fun.

5/01/2012 8 bf, 3 km gevaren toen, heb het teruggevonden !! yes :-) wel slechts 110 km gereden met de auto toen hoor.
