Yesterday was the best day of kitesurfing I can recall in a very long time. It blew NE all day. I woke up for the dawn patrol session. I first headed down to the beach to shoot the sunrise. After that, Rick and I headed up to S-Turns to do a downwinder back to the house. It was fun, slightly underpowered on my 12m Havoc and 5’10 JL Fish. Half way down, I think I might have hit a turtles shell because I got knocked hard off my board and there was a sizey dent in the bottom of the board. The thing was gone by the time I got back to my board. Other than that it was a fun mellow session.
I went in to work and then took a quick session with Tommie at Mac Oca. By then, the waves grew to a much more playful state. I rode my 6’2 LF Rawson quad powered on my 12m. It was a terrific session, though rather short.
I cranked out the rest of the day and then headed back home. We rounded the troops and did another S-Turns to home downwinder. It was even better. The waves started to get some size to them. It was a perfect direction for unhooking and laying out some turns. It was one of my best sessions in a long time! Not to mention scoring three of them in one day…
