The forecast promised much and Chimet was kicking off, but when I arrived at the coast it was just a light breeze. Still having made the effort to drive down, I was certainly getting wet. 5.8 and the FSW turned out to be the right combination. There were a couple of moments when I could have used a smaller board, but only just. Limiting the length of runs is one of the best ways of improving and certainly makes for a great workout. A move every five minutes makes the time fly too. By the time you’ve racked up ten tacks or gybes the power hour is up and it’s time for rest and reflection. Of course, I didn’t do the rest bit and just carried on until I could barely move. Then drove back to London.
