Another day and another windsurf. Here are a few clips of just a few of the people who were out on the water yesterday. Me doing the filming, Steve and Tom windsurfing, Snoozer (Neal) kitesurfing.
What a session, blue skies, decent wind and lots of waves. I was well powered with my 5m sail and Naish Hybrid Freewave, a fun combination that led to a perfect windsurf session here at Ynyslas. Tom came you too so it was just the two of us and lots of jumps, gybes and playing...
After what seemed like the end of summer yesterday and a very autumnal feeling day, today was a little warmer, much drier and there was still some wind so I had no option but to go windsurfing. I took my GoPro camera with me of course and got some nice footage of a decent session...
It may not be the fastest way to travel, but it’s not far off it and it’s certainly one of the most fun ways of getting from Ynyslas to Borth and back. Fast, coastal gun-running in the sunshine of Wales – Perfection!
Ivor kicked in over the weekend as predicted and blew with a vengeance all day long. Despite the fact that I was supposed to be having a rest day on Saturday in preparation for the Dyfi Enduro on Sunday I just had to go for a windsurf. The estuary would have been good as the...
It may still only be Spring but the sunshine, blue skies and turquoise waters here have made it feel like summer for a few days in April. Who’d have thought this video was shot in Wales!
And just to prove that I have still been windsurfing despite the distinct lack of wind lately, here’s a quick clip of me giving it a go with only just enough wind one morning last week. Conditions were very marginal and I was out on my 80 ltr slalom board and a 6.3m sail. At...
Just a quick video clip of me windsurfing this morning at Ynyslas. I was out on my 4.5m sail and little JP Wave Board, although I probably should have rigged the slightly larger 5m sail as there were times when I wasn’t quite powered up enough – This resulted in a bit of a swim...
I’ve just got back from a nice morning windsurf. Nothing too spectacular as my 4.5m sail and little board wasn’t quite big enough so I took some rinsings in the lulls and had one pretty big swim too. On one occasion I had a monster wipeout got rinsed around for a while, held under for...
There’s been some wind again the last few days. It’s normally very windy here all the time, but so far this year there hasn’t been a huge amount and when there has been I’ve either been away, busy with something else or unable to get out windsurfing for some other reason. This week has been...
