VOLCAN: I was motivatged and focused on trying it – For the first time I could allmost land it Friday. Saturday I attempted 4 and No 3 almost clean. For me it’s still tricky with the 79L board – but I’ll keep going :)

During the week one afternoon with some Levante at Cabopino – but there haven’t been much wind…

Frog kick

Mittwoch, 10. Februar 2010

suddenly there was wind raising against the bad forecast. I rigged up 5.3 and could handle the shore with almost no wind!

Then the wind was stronger and I could ride some waves and check out the frog kick – first try :)

Almerimar

riding 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.

Today I could start with 5.3 at Club de Playa. After the last two days with wind it was not that heavy than it was the last times (I couldn’t think about riding waves – had enough trouble with the gusty conditions, shorebreak and so on..).

After some time I was really well-(over)-powered with the 5.3 but I just made more loss leech – it was going so well (for the first time) – so I didn’t want to change and have a under-powered rig (and problems with surfing the board again). 18-26 knots not that gusty 8)

The Board is really nice, everything went much more easier than last time and I could focus on the waves!

I love it!

Rainy days in Almerimar:

 Almerimar some rain

Almerimar down-town

 

I’ve checked out my new 79L fanatic life-style device with 15knots, but till I have rigged up there have been just about 8 left – so i couldn’t even beach start. But it felt very good with the rig – feels like I just carried the rig – the board itself feels really light. I hope for windy days!

The day after: No wind but waves for a little bit surfing – it was a great feeling again! Sunny day with cold water…

Night Riders

after a loose day with great forecast but no wind at all, we had a nice night session. A lot of waves and well (over-)powered 4.2.

Cabronsky and I have been stand up paddling in Club de Playa. Nice but it doesn’t fit in my van…

Catching one wave

In the afternoon a little bit of wind raised up through rain. I have been out with 5.3 for about one hour. After the rain no more wind…
