Shooting Gallery


WNW was a good wind direction for having some ocean time @ Bristol today...
I chose my favourite sail the 4,5 Firelight, even though the wind was a little bit up and down. But the sail fits just perfecto to my 1,73 m and 62 kg on my 70 litre board!!
The conditions in Bristol were relaxed and easy...in between some rain and a big rainbow :) and I had also an easy entrance and exit this time... I really enjoyed today and already wish for more!!!

I also was lucky that Sarah had a day off and made some nice pics! THX a lot!! Hope you like them too!

SSW storm passing the canaries


This week we had some real weather over here... stormy winds and rain. I love these kind of days because the air is so fresh and windsurfing gets rough, what is a nice variety to Fuerteventuras mostly light  north winds.
Posaidon sent some SSW wind and some spots on our northshore coast started to work with sideoff! Unfortunately the swell was not so big but with some luck you found yourself on a headhigh wave! My sail choice on this day was a 5.0 but after half an hour the wind increased "monster" and I just couldnt hold it anymore and I decided to switch down to my 3.7 motorcross Superfreak!
It was blowing now with up to 50 knots I guess. But after a while a strong rain came along and the wind just disappeared and the session was over...!
It was a short but intense ride...and my butt is hurting because I landed an unnatural backloop attent somehow on da mast!
