With these high pressures sitting over the UK resulting in no waves and no wind, it means it's SUP cruising time.
On Saturday me Shelly and Stu did 9.5 miles on the SUP shelly's still feeling the pain. It was awesome to cruse up the river having a look at all the sights same it was slightly raining but you can't have it all.

On the way back Stu and decide to hit a rope swing we had spotted on the way up, found a new way to get onto the SUP's check out the video!!!

After Saturday and another forecast of zero wind it was time to go around Hilbre. I've done this a couple of times before on windsurf longboard and a open top kayak but this was the first time doing in on the SUP. You could really feel the effects of the the tide on the way up to Hilbre but with the seals ushering us on to the tip of the island where it always getting choppy when the tidal streams on the Mersey and the Dee meet which made for some interesting paddling.

On Monday I decide to head to Rhossy for to top of the weekend actives and to test out my new sails. Started of on my 4.7 but there where most no/tiny waves due to the super high tide, but as the tide dropped the wind picked up (onto my 4.2) and it turned into classic Rhossy. The my New Simmer 2010 icons rock paired with my moo twin i was all over the wave face hahaha, nice having some sails which go dead.
