There haven’t been much Levante at Carchuna, so we went to Torrenueva for more or less wind. With 5.3 I could ride some hours and train a little bit.
Torrenueva
02. Februar 2010Freeride
01. Februar 2010While there was no more wind raising I rigged up 6.4 and went a little bit freeriding with the XTC 115. It was quite ok, but I felt the big sail really heavy.
Almerimar
30. Januar 2010riding with not that much wind for 5.3 and some waves. It was an ideal day for me because there haven’t been that much shorebrake abut still nice waves. I was surfing with the old Spice 86 and it didn’t feel that slow and straight as the last time.
Carchuna
29. Januar 2010nice day with Poniente in Carchuna. Not an easy spot but with waves. For me it was difficult to ride in the chop and the waves broke quite next to the beach and there is a riff!
Uni blows
20. Januar 2010Right after finishing university, I recognized fresh breeze. A quick view to windfinder malaga meant also about 5 bft.
But in El Palo there have been just some few moments of planing with 6.4. Anyway I really appreciate any day on water with my stuff…
Vieja tabla:
15. Januar 2010asi fue: since i almost ripped my new board, I’ve got into the pleasure to ride the “old” spice 86. It was quite a hard day at club the playa but since then I really could understand why I had some trouble to start surfing with the new one.
It’s such a difference!
Since I got to ride a real radical wave board, the spice feels like a real freeride board!
(anyway for begining in wave it geared perfect!)
Wipeout
12. Januar 2010I had taken the hard way out at Cabopino. Nice day with about 3m waves and wind for 4.7:
While I was coming in next to the outer mole I tried to make a backsideturn – off course it washed me, and after a couple of waves, I have been about 20m before the inner mole. Somehow I couldn’t handle the situation (I should have just waterstart and leave in any direction!) and few moments later I and my gear was on the rocks of the mole! I took the sail and tried to pull the board also out of the water, whilst incoming waves blaring it against the rocks!
my broken board – it has several spots where it broke; nose, tail, upside, underwater hull, deck, sides…
