Day 11 - Finally scored some warm weather windsurfing


Blue Lagoon 5-15-2013 Wednesday.
Day 11 for the 2013 season plus it's finally warm out.

Finally some warm weather windsurfing with warm winds although the water still felt cold.
Big crowd gathered at BL today with the forecast calling for west winds 15-25 most were satisfied with the results.
Rigged the 5.5 on the 101 liter board - Gusty conditions with a mix of wind speeds. I would say 5-30 mph were the norm.
Most sailed on 6.2 down to 5.0.
Nice session over powered with the 5.5 during the gusts but it all worked out well.
Some occasional voodoo chop but for the most part I was happy with the rare organized swell and as usual flat hero jibing on the inside.


Sail Time: 2.0 hours from 12:00 - 2:00
Gear: 5.5 with 100 liter board
Conditions:  Gusty - some voodoo chop among some organized swell. 
Weather: Air 75s water 50s.
Wind:  NW to W 5-30 mph
Schooled: Hero jibes on the swells and inside hero jibes on the flats.
