- Making the most of modest means
After a nice mellow surf ski session yesterday here at Ynyslas, today was not nearly so mellow. Gone was the sunshine, replaced with a horrible grey drizzle. The waves were a little meatier too and I took quite a few on the head in the Impact Zone! All worth it for the rides back in...
Just a quick photo of the views from Carn Owen at the weekend. It was a fairly grey, chilly day here in West Wales but as Simon pointed out as we finished our ride at 9:30am, most people were still just getting out of bed and we had already done loads. We’d had an easy...
