The 4.7 Skank

View of Llanfairfechan and the Menai Straits

Summer days and early starts go hand in hand, and with the lack of desent forecast for so so so long, I decided last week that I'll wake up almost anytime to score some wind. so this weekend it was a 5:30 wake up!!

With NE blowing theres not many spots that work, but with the review from Stu and Carl on iwindsurf.co.uk I decided to try Llanfairfechan a spot that i've driven past hundreds times in a SW on the way to rhossy, but never really bothered as it was flat as a pancake.

In a NE though it deliver waist high + ramps which was pretty awesome! Started on my 4.7 but had to switch to my 5.4 as the wind dropped which seems to be a occurring theme of lately but at least I got out, the current eventually over came by planing ability so i packed in by 11:00 and home by 1:30.

Best rigging spot in the North-West

Sipping

After the 3 mouths of zero wind the good stuff is returned and allowed me to sip on the fine thing that is windsurfing

Last Wednesday (see previous blog post) was absolutely bonkers. Me and four others from the west kirby crew tried to do battle but with a huge tide and 40kts winds, there was no real fun to be had, absolutely freezing with a crazy rip into the rocks of the car park. After an hour i had enough and decided to mince around the lakes car park and talk crap - a fine art!!! A few ventured onto the lake including Bubble and Dixon - check out their vid shows what the wind was like when it dropped.

Monday the called was made for some Mid-Wales action, which delivered some fluky wind and a soft tiny wave to play with, but this wasn't at all to bad gave be a reason to try my new moo - It's a keeper, slashy like a teenage self-abuser but floaty enough to keep -well floating when the windys playing tricks, two thumps up to Jon

A Super View

wind!!

Looks like that 3.7 was worth buying after all, looks like it'll blow knickers of the entire NW of the UK tomoz, heading to west kirby as a moosive tide is about.

Thursday looks a little less - maybe time to christen carbon moo with some Leasowe waves.

Moo

At the end of last year I decided too have a change of equipment. The freestyle board has gone as i'm just not into it waves are the future!! So to replace the early planning of the freestyle board I decided it was time to give Jon (Moo custom) back his board which I think he accidentally sold me two years ago and get this new one shaped.

I spent ages talking to Jon about what I was looking for and couple of weeks later a full carbon compact twin is delivered in team moo livery.

The service and quality Jon delivers is freakin awesome, just need some wind to use it!!

Surfsation

Stu Pulling in

With snow blanketing the UK resulting in most of UK closing including my work. Stu made the call to go surf Hellies. Although driving though Walse the mercury reached -10 oC i thought it wasn' going to be such a good idea.

After applying the neoprene, the surf shaped up super sweet with some over heads surfsations. As the tide pushed and the surf turned into shore break,

and with the Eddie fresh in our minds it was late pull ins in the close outs awesome

but punishing!

blurry but brill

Just before going for a dip awesome photo from stu

Bling!

New Post New Sail, Bling!!

Best way to start a post, with my new 3.7 Simmer Icon. Loving my new sails, the colour, the handling just everything about them, they're getting a top score of two thumbs up!!!

blogs been a bit slow but it the same story of uni work and lazyness, but this will change had my last lecture before christmas and i'm starting placement so i should be able to score some more sessions and more posts and the best news is that the daylight hours are increasing!!

The most recent and most memorable sesses (although could be over a mouth ago) where at Leasowe with Jon (Moo Custom) and one at Rhossy.

Rocked up to Leasowe after lunch not really expect anything, but with a WNW Lefts (or Uppers) was firing, although it took me a while to realise, who was scooting around in front of the car park. Although once i realise it was wave-o-rama out there good jumping and good riding of nice head high waves, (still waiting on photos to prove this form nick but they do exist).

Last warm sess at Rhossy bolt-onshore and big!

The sess at rhossy was a bit crap to terms of rides and jumping but it was pretty good just to score what was probably the last warm one of the year. The wind was bolt on which turned the bay into a bit of a obstacle course with some big ones rolling in, although managed to avoid a swim so all was good!!
