Travel 1700 miles to no wind..


As you know we are sunning ourselves in Tarifa training for the UKWA season......


........only to find you have all the wind at home and we have nothing here!. All we have is very light winds hardly enough for my 9.0mtr NCX. In fact today 5 kitsurfers and 2 windsurfers got completely windbound 500-1000mtrs out from Punta Paloma beach.......... a very long swim indeed for the windsurfers and the kiters didn't find it easy either.

On the subject of kitesurfing, I have now purchased my 13mtr Rrd Passion kite and big ( cannot remember size) Rrd Placebo twintip. Went to set it up here in Tarifa to find its all completely changed - so no kiting either. Will have to tap up QSW Team Rider Pete Morris to show me the ropes when I get back.
Oh - and here's a little video funny I put together when bored one day...
